Cover letter [RFC 0/2] readdir() as an inode operation
This is a first try to move readdir() to become an inode operation. This is necessary for a VFS implementation of "something like union-mounts" where a readdir() needs to read the directory contents of multiple directories. Besides that the new interface is no longer giving the struct file to the filesystem implementations anymore.
Comments, please?
