From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: [PATCH 7/9] Define get_init_pts_sb()
See comments in the function header for details. The new interface will
be used in a follow-on patch.
Changelog [v2]:
[Dave Hansen] Replace get_sb_ref() in fs/super.c with get_init_pts_sb()
and make the new interface private to devpts

+ * get_init_pts_sb()
+ *
+ * This interface is needed to support multiple namespace semantics in
+ * devpts while preserving backward compatibility of the current 'single-
+ * namespace' semantics. i.e all mounts of devpts without the 'newinstance'
+ * mount option should bind to the initial kernel mount, like
+ * get_sb_single().
+ *
+ * Mounts with 'newinstance' option create a new private namespace.
+ *
+ * But for single-mount semantics, devpts cannot use get_sb_single(),
+ * because get_sb_single()/sget() find and use the super-block from
+ * the most recent mount of devpts. But that recent mount may be a
+ * 'newinstance' mount and get_sb_single() would pick the newinstance
+ * super-block instead of the initial super-block.
+ *
+ * This interface is identical to get_sb_single() except that it
+ * consistently selects the 'single-namespace' superblock even in the
+ * presence of the private namespace (i.e 'newinstance') super-blocks.
