Subject: [PATCH v2] init: replace sys_mount() to do_mount()
Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2010 23:38:09 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282055889-6135-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201008171541.47078.arnd@arndb.de>
sys_mount() just copies all (string) arguments from user space to kernel
and calls do_mount(). In this case we have all args in kernel already so
there is no need to call sys_mount(). One thing we should take care is
'data' have to be in a page unless it is NULL. Do it manually.

I found 3 more calls in init/do_mounts_initrd.c and merged them. Please
apply this instead.

Arnd, thanks for reviewing and the suggestion but I think that should be
in a different patch (set).
