Subject: [PATCH 0/5] RCU-walk support for autofs

Hi Ian,
 Have you had a chance to run your tests in these patches yet?
 I've done what testing I can think of and cannot fault them.

 This set is against 3.17-rc1 and make use of the new -EISDIR handling
 for d_manage() and assumes the other patches which already went in
 through Andrew Morton.

 I've added a section to autofs4.txt about mount namespaces, but it is
 otherwise unchanged.

 If I could get an {Acked,Reviewed,Tested}-By in the next few weeks so
 I can send them on to Andrew I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

NeilBrown (5):
      autofs4: allow RCU-walk to walk through autofs4.
      autofs4: factor should_expire() out of autofs4_expire_indirect.
      autofs4: avoid taking fs_lock during rcu-walk
      autofs4: d_manage() should return -EISDIR when appropriate in rcu-walk mode.
      autofs: the documentation I wanted to read
