--------------------------- file_system_type ---------------------------
prototypes:
- struct super_block *(*get_sb) (struct file_system_type *, int,
- const char *, void *);
+ struct int (*get_sb) (struct file_system_type *, int,
+ const char *, void *, struct vfsmount *);
void (*kill_sb) (struct super_block *);
locking rules:
may block BKL
get_sb yes yes
kill_sb yes yes
-->get_sb() returns error or a locked superblock (exclusive on ->s_umount).
+->get_sb() returns error or 0 with locked superblock attached to the vfsmount
+(exclusive on ->s_umount).
->kill_sb() takes a write-locked superblock, does all shutdown work on it,
unlocks and drops the reference.
