Subject: [PATCH v2 39/42] ovl: refactor ovl_fill_super()
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 17:37:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113-work-ovl-cred-guard-v2-39-c08940095e90@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251113-work-ovl-cred-guard-v2-0-c08940095e90@kernel.org>

Split the core into a separate helper in preparation of converting the
caller to the scoped ovl cred guard.
