Sorry Al, that's my bad. See https://www.ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/autofs-fix-possible-inode-leak-in-autofs_fill_super.patch I think this will fix it, I'll forward it to Andrew if you agree: autofs - fix handling of d_make_root() return in autofs_fill_super() From: Ian Kent <raven@xxxxxxxxxx> A previous change to handle a possible inode leak in autofs_fill_super() added an iput() on d_make_root() failure but d_make_root() already puts the passed in inode on failure.
