Hey Linus,
/* Summary */
This ports autofs to the new mount api. The patchset has existed for
quite a while but never made it upstream. Ian picked it back up.
This also fixes a bug where fs_param_is_fd() was passed a garbage
param->dirfd but it expected it to be set to the fd that was used to set
param->file otherwise result->uint_32 contains nonsense. So make sure
it's set.
One less filesystem using the old mount api. We're getting there, albeit
rather slow. The last remaining major filesystem that hasn't converted
is btrfs. Patches exist - I even wrote them - but so far they haven't
made it upstream.
Yes, looks like about 39 still to be converted.
Just for information, excluding btrfs, what would you like to see as the
priority for conversion (in case me or any of my colleagues get a chance
to spend a bit more time on it)?
I'm just starting to have a look at zonefs as a candidate.

And devpts looks fairly straight forward and is used a lot ... I'll see if
I can get time to get that one done, ;)
