Here's an updated mountinfo patch with the following changes relative
to the last submission (the one currently in -mm):
- in __d_path() don't add extra parameter for checking unreachable path
- reduce proliferation of #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS into dcache.c and seq_file.c
- make peer group ID allocation a separate pass from setting mount shared
- change order and format of fields in /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
- remove dubious cleanups
- consolidate locking: don't use vfsmount_lock where namespace_sem suffices
- patch history was getting tangled up, merge and resplit into logical chunks
This series is also available here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git mountinfo
I guess the simplest for all involved parties would be if this went
into Al's tree (if it looks OK) and then Andrew can suck that tree (*)
containing all sort of goodies into -mm.
(*) git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6.git vfs-2.6.25
Thanks,
Miklos

I coudn't get that to work, perhaps due to lack of gittiness.

I recently added that tree to the -mm lineup as git-vfs.patch, and it's in
linux-next.
This patch series applied happily on top of git-vfs (and 887 other patches ;))
