From 90ebe5654febe3555a2516d51d3d251226d35fdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2005 13:35:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] namei fixes OK, here comes a patch series that hopefully should close all too-early-mntput() races in fs/namei.c. Entire area is convoluted as hell, so I'm splitting that series into _very_ small chunks. Patches alread in the tree close only (very wide) races in following symlinks (see "busy inodes after umount" thread some time ago). Unfortunately, quite a few narrower races of the same nature were not closed. Hopefully this should take care of all of them.
