NAME
iget_locked - obtain an inode from a mounted file system
SYNOPSIS
struct inode * iget_locked(struct super_block * sb, unsigned long ino);
ARGUMENTS
sb super block of file system ino inode number to get
DESCRIPTION
Search for the inode specified by ino in the inode cache and if present return it with an increased reference count. This is for file systems where the inode number is sufficient for unique identification of an inode. If the inode is not in cache, allocate a new inode and return it locked, hashed, and with the I_NEW flag set. The file system gets to fill it in before unlocking it via unlock_new_inode.
