I rolled the patch before I was a committer in response to an item on
PHK's JKH tasklist.

The getcwd() implementation in the Linux module is not inherently Linux
specific; but it does implement the name-finding without using the name
cache, by scanning directories. The patch merges the name cache and
non-name-cache based implementations of getcwd() to address the PRs which
Marc cited in his earlier message.

You seem to be concerned about plagiarism. Could you clarify or explain
your concerns?
