Merge patch series "fs: last of the pseudofs mount api conversions"
Eric Sandeen <[email protected]> says:
pstore used mount_single, which used to transparently do a
remount operation on a fresh mount of an existing superblock.
The new get_tree_single does not do this, but prior discussion
on fsdevel seems to indicate that this isn't expected to be a
problem. We can watch for issues.
devpts is just a forward port from work dhowells did already, and it
seems straightforward. I left error messages as they are rather than
converting to the mount API message channel for now.
devtmpfs was already converted, but left a .mount in place, rather
than using .get_tree. The solution to this is ... unique so some
scrutiny is probably wise.
The last patch removes reconfigure_single, mount_single, and
compare_single because no users remain, but we could also wait until
all conversions are done, and remove all infrastructure at that time
instead, if desired.
