This needs to hold subsys->su_mutex

I think from here to before the return we need to hold the parent dentry
mutex with I_MUTEX_PARENT

This needs to hold configfs_dirent_lock

We probably need to do the detach_prep stuff somewhere in here.


I think this needs to hold the parent dentry mutex with I_MUTEX_PARENT from
here to ...

 ... here

needs subsys->su_mutex
