The patch titled r/o bind mounts: sys_mknodat(): elevate write count for vfs_mknod/create() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is ro-bind-mounts-sys_mknodat-elevate-write-count-for-vfs_mknod-create.patch This patch was dropped because Viro's comments sounded rather serious ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: r/o bind mounts: sys_mknodat(): elevate write count for vfs_mknod/create() From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx> This takes care of all of the direct callers of vfs_mknod(). Since a few of these cases also handle normal file creation as well, this also covers some calls to vfs_create().
