Hi, Yes. I found the source and read it.
But I cant understand the following things. 1. Why mutex lock is used in the code ? I know it is used for process synchronisation but why that section of the code is critical ? 2. What is the purpose of the "sget()" function ? 3. And what is the job of the function mount_bdev() ?
