[PATCH 3/16] Introduce MS_KERNMOUNT flag

Pavel Emelianov
2007-07-06T08:12:06Z

This flag tells the .get_sb callback that this is a kern_mount()
call so that it can trust *data pointer to be valid in-kernel one.

Running a few steps forward - this will be needed for proc to
create the superblock and store a valid pid namespace on it
during the namespace creation. The reason, why the namespace
cannot live without proc mount is described in the appropriate
patch.
