Linux Virtualization - Mar 2019 - [RFC PATCH 00/68] VFS: Convert a bunch of filesystems to the new mount API

Hi Al,

Here's a set of patches that converts a bunch (but not yet all!) to the new
mount API.  To this end, it makes the following changes:

 (1) Provides a convenience member in struct fs_context that is OR'd into
     sb->s_iflags by sget_fc().

 (2) Provides a convenience helper function, vfs_init_pseudo_fs_context(),
     for doing most of the work in mounting a pseudo filesystem.

 (3) Provides a convenience helper function, vfs_get_block_super(), for
     doing the work in setting up a block-based superblock.

 (4) Improves the handling of fd-type parameters.

 (5) Moves some of the subtype handling int fuse.

 (6) Provides a convenience helper function, vfs_get_mtd_super(), for
     doing the work in setting up an MTD device-based superblock.

 (7) Kills off mount_pseudo(), mount_pseudo_xattr(), mount_ns(),
     sget_userns(), mount_mtd(), mount_single().

 (8) Converts a slew of filesystems to use the mount API.

 (9) Fixes a bug in hypfs.

The patches can be found here also:

Convert the virtio_balloon filesystem to the new internal mount API as the old
one will be obsoleted and removed.  This allows greater flexibility in
communication of mount parameters between userspace, the VFS and the
filesystem.

See Documentation/filesystems/mount_api.txt for more information.
