From: Andreas Herrmann <[email protected]>
This is a resubmit of Andreas' patch that reduces stackframe usage in
do_mount. Problem is that without this patch we get a kernel stack
overflow if we run with 4k stacks (s390 31 bit mode).
See original stack back trace below and Andreas' patch and analysis
here:
