A lot of drivers does the following:
sb = get_super(dev);
if (sb)
invalidate_inodes(sb);
Each of these places is an oopsable race with umount. We can't fix them
without touching a lot of drivers. However, we can make the future fix
easier if we put the above into a helper function. Patch below does that.
Results:
* simpler code in drivers
* drivers don't care about the superblocks and their handling
* when we will add refcounting for superblocks we will not need
to touch every block driver out there.
Patch is absolutely straightforward - function added to inode.c, declared
in fs.h and exported; instances of the body replaced with calls.
Please, apply it.
