The 'noauto' and 'auto' options were missed when migrating to the new mount API. As a result, users with these in their fstab mount options are now unable to mount debugfs filesystems, as they'll receive an "Unknown parameter" error. This restores the old behaviour of ignoring noauto and auto if they're given. Fixes: a20971c18752 ("vfs: Convert debugfs to use the new mount API") Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- With current top-of-tree, debugfs remained empty on my boards triggering the message "debugfs: Unknown parameter 'auto'". I applied a similar fix which CIFS got and largely reused the commit message from 19d51588125f ("cifs: ignore auto and noauto options if given"). Given the comment in debugfs_parse_param(), I am not sure if this patch is a complete fix or if there are more options to be ignored. This patch makes it work for me(tm), however. >From my light research, tracefs (which was converted to new mount API together with debugfs) doesn't need the same fixing. But I am not super-sure about that.
