Subject: sys32_mount bug
Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 00:25:18 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040324002518.11c9ffae.davem@redhat.com> (raw)


Systems using compat system calls will need this too.

We weren't handling a NULL 'type' argument to mount() properly,
f.e. this happens legitimately when changing the options of an
existing mount.
