The patch titled autofs4: detect invalid direct mount requests has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was autofs4-detect-invalid-direct-mount-requests.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: autofs4: detect invalid direct mount requests From: Ian Kent <raven@xxxxxxxxxx> autofs v5 direct and offset mounts within an autofs filesystem are triggered by existing autofs triger mounts so the mount point dentry must be positive. If the mount point dentry is negative then the trigger doesn't exist so we can return fail immediately.
