Linus pointed out that there's error handling and naming issues in the that we should rewrite: * Perform the access checks for the buffer before actually doing any work instead of doing it during the iteration. * Rename the arguments to listmount() and do_listmount() to clarify what the arguments are used for. * Get rid of the pointless ctr variable and overflow checking. * Get rid of the pointless speculation check.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
