sysfs, kernfs: make super_blocks bind to different kernfs_roots
kernfs is being updated to allow multiple sysfs_dirent hierarchies so that it can also be used by other users. Currently, sysfs super_blocks are always attached to one kernfs_root - sysfs_root - and distinguished only by their namespace tags. This patch adds sysfs_super_info->root and update sysfs_fill/test_super() so that super_blocks are identified by the combination of both the associated kernfs_root and namespace tag. This allows mounting different kernfs hierarchies. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
