Subject: [PATCH v3 62/63] struct mount: relocate MNT_WRITE_HOLD bit
Date: Wed,  3 Sep 2025 05:55:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250903045537.2579614-72-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250903045537.2579614-1-viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

... from ->mnt_flags to LSB of ->mnt_pprev_for_sb.

This is safe - we always set and clear it within the same mount_lock
scope, so we won't interfere with list operations - traversals are
always forward, so they don't even look at ->mnt_prev_for_sb and
both insertions and removals are in mount_lock scopes of their own,
so that bit will be clear in *all* mount instances during those.
