From 2a32cebd6cbcc43996c3e2d114fa32ba1e71192a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Fri, 8 May 2009 16:05:57 -0400 Subject: Fix races around the access to ->s_options Put generic_show_options read access to s_options under rcu_read_lock, split save_mount_options() into "we are setting it the first time" (uses in foo_fill_super()) and "we are relacing and freeing the old one", synchronize_rcu() before kfree() in the latter.
