This one I find very annoying. There's exactly *one* user of that
interface (back in fed95bab8d29 there were none), and it doesn't want
that dummy argument.

WTF? Why did the driver-core-next development add that argument at
all, rather than just pass in NULL directly? Do we expect to grow more
users of kernfs_mount?

And the "bool *new_sb_created" argument really makes *zero* sense to
kernfs_mount(). It was added to fix a namespace refcount leak, BUT
kernfs_mount() DOES NOT TAKE A NAMESPACE PARAMETER!

So quite frankly, that kernfs_mount() calling convention change looks
completely f*cked up.

I think I'm going to resolve that conflict differently from your
suggested one - I'm going to just remove the broken stupid
"new_sb_created" argument from the kernfs_mount() helper function.

(It obviously stays around for kernfs_mount_ns() that *does* take a
namespace pointer).

People, holler if you disagree, I'll hold off pushing out my
resolution for a while anyway (do all the normal build tests and
reboot into it).
