3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dave Chinner <[email protected]> commit 556b8883cfac3d3203557e161ea8005f8b5479b2 upstream. Commit daba542 ("xfs: skip verification on initial "guess" superblock read") dropped the use of a verifier for the initial superblock read so we can probe the sector size of the filesystem stored in the superblock. It, however, now fails to validate that what was read initially is actually an XFS superblock and hence will fail the sector size check and return ENOSYS. This causes probe-based mounts to fail because it expects XFS to return EINVAL when it doesn't recognise the superblock format.
