Please put kernfs changes in a spearate patch.

Wouldn't @kn, @sb be a better order? Also, kernfs super_blocks are
determined by the kernfs_root and its namespace. I wonder whether
specifying @ns would be better.

Do we do this now?

Wouldn't stack dump helpful here? Why not

if (WARN_ONCE(!knparent, "find_next..."))
return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);

or even just WARN_ON_ONCE().

Ditto. It'd be a kernel bug. WARN is usually the better way.

Please move this upwards so that it's below other initialized
variables.

Hmmm... why is !opts.none necessary? Please add a comment explaining
why the above is necessary.

Heh, is kernfs_obtain_root() the right name? Maybe
kernfs_node_to_inode()?

Thanks.
