From 9b1e3afd6d56937ced3914971621d0f053ea9178 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Kent Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2005 17:16:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] autofs4: avoid panic on bind mount of autofs owned directory While this is not a solution to bind and move mounts on autofs owned directories it is necessary to fix the trady error handling. At least it avoids the kernel panic I observed checking out bug #4589.
