Having looked through these patches... The problem is that you'll get
your module impossible to unload. Sane solution:
static struct vfsmount *drm_mnt;
static int count;
struct inode *drm_alloc_inode(void)
{
struct inode *res;
int err = simple_pin_fs(&drm_fs, &drm_mnt, &count);
if (err)
return ERR_PTR(err);
res = alloc_anon_inode(drm_mnt->mnt_sb);
if (IS_ERR(res))
simple_release_fs(&drm_mnt, &count);
return res;
}
/* call from drm_free_dev() */
void drm_put_anon_inode(struct drm_device *dev)
{
iput(dev->anon_inode);
simple_release_fs(&drm_mnt, &count);
}
and lose those kern_mount/kern_umount.
