Pull more superblock follow-on fixes from Christian Brauner:
"This contains two more small follow-up fixes for the super work this
cycle. I went through all filesystems once more and detected two minor
issues that still needed fixing:
- Some filesystems support mtd devices (e.g., mount -t jffs2 mtd2
/mnt). The mtd infrastructure uses the sb->s_mtd pointer to find an
existing superblock. When the mtd device is put and sb->s_mtd
cleared the superblock can still be found fs_supers and so this
risks a use-after-free.
Add a small patch that aligns mtd with what we did for regular
block devices and switch keying to rely on sb->s_dev.
(This was tested with mtd devices and jffs2 as xfstests doesn't
support mtd devices.)
- Switch nfs back to rely on kill_anon_super() so the superblock is
removed from the list of active supers before sb->s_fs_info is
freed"
* tag 'v6.6-vfs.super.fixes.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
NFS: switch back to using kill_anon_super
mtd: key superblock by device number
fs: export sget_dev()
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.
