Unfortunately, it doesn't compile against -next.

    vfs: d_alloc_root() gone
    
    all callers converted to d_make_root() by now
    
    Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

Documentation/filesystems/porting:
[mandatory]
	d_alloc_root() is gone, along with a lot of bugs caused by code
misusing it.  Replacement: d_make_root(inode).  The difference is,
d_make_root() drops the reference to inode if dentry allocation fails.
