PATCH 1/1 make UML call dentry_open() with a valid vfsmount

I'm trying to enforce the convention that you may not call dentry_open() with a NULL vfsmount. This is so that the r/o bind mount patches can consistenty acquire write access to the mounts there.

This patch fixes up UML's HPPFS to track both the vfsmount and the dentry for its files. Compile, but not runtime tested.

I'm trying to enforce the convention that you may not call dentry_open() with a NULL vfsmount. This is so that the r/o bind mount patches can consistenty acquire write access to the mounts there.

This patch fixes up UML's HPPFS to track both the vfsmount and the dentry for its files. Compile, but not runtime tested.

Can I get a Signed-off-by:?

This patch fixes up UML's HPPFS to track both the vfsmount and the dentry for its files. Compile, but not runtime tested.

This also fixes a potential oops with the r/o bind mount patches caused by passing a NULL mnt into dentry_open(). After you've had a chance to verify that this works, could you send it up to -mm?

One more thing... have you had any problems getting arch/um/os-Linux/time.c to compile because of a lack of tv_to_nsec()?

One more thing... have you had any problems getting arch/um/os-Linux/time.c to compile because of a lack of tv_to_nsec()?

That should be fixed in current -mm.
