That patch isn't correct since it assumes that all eCryptfs super blocks are equal if the lower paths (and, ultimately, the lower inode) are equal. However, the lower path is only one of many properties of an eCryptfs superblock. For example, the second mount may have been configured to use a different file encryption key. Tyler
