[PATCH v2 4/7] fuse: Add dedicated filesystem context ops for submounts

From: Greg Kurz
Date: Fri Jun 04 2021 - 12:12:25 EST


The creation of a submount is open-coded in fuse_dentry_automount().
This brings a lot of complexity and we recently had to fix bugs
because we weren't setting SB_BORN or because we were unlocking
sb->s_umount before sb was fully configured. Most of these could
have been avoided by using the mount API instead of open-coding.

Basically, this means coming up with a proper ->get_tree()
implementation for submounts and call vfs_get_tree(), or better
fc_mount().

The creation of the superblock for submounts is quite different from
the root mount. Especially, it doesn't require to allocate a FUSE
filesystem context, nor to parse parameters.

Introduce a dedicated context ops for submounts to make this clear.
This is just a placeholder for now, fuse_get_tree_submount() will
be populated in a subsequent patch.

Only visible change is that we stop allocating/freeing a useless FUSE
filesystem context with submounts.
