It is more or less. However we landed up copying it because we needed a 
slight modification in order to cope with the metafs mounts. There may 
be scope to factor out the common parts I guess. We cannot select the 
root dentry until after we've parsed the mount command line, so it is 
really just the last part of the function that is different,

Steve.
