[PATCH v18 06/12] fs,security: Add sb_delete hook

Tue May 26 20:53:16 UTC 2020


The sb_delete security hook is called when shutting down a superblock,
which may be useful to release kernel objects tied to the superblock's
lifetime (e.g. inodes).

This new hook is needed by Landlock to release (ephemerally) tagged
struct inodes.  This comes from the unprivileged nature of Landlock
described in the next commit.

Changes since v17:
* Initial patch to replace the direct call to landlock_release_inodes()
  (requested by James Morris).
