Subject: Remove proc_mnt's use for killing inodes From: Dave Hansen <hansendc@xxxxxxxxxx> We use proc_mnt as a shortcut to find a superblock on which to go killing /proc inodes. This will break if we ever have more than one /proc superblock. So, use the superblock list to go find each of the /proc sb's and kill inodes on each superblock. This does introduce an extra lock grab from what was there before, but the list should be only 1 long 99% of the time, and we don't exactly remove proc entries in hot paths. Note that this *isn't* the path that we use to get rid of the actual /proc pid entries. Those are a different beast.
