Mount failure due to restricted access to a point along the mount path

[Miklos Szeredi]

Hi,

A while ago this was discussed:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cifs/7779

This is essentially a regression introduced by the shared superblock
changes in 3.0 and several SUSE customers are complaining about it.
I've created a temporary fix which reverts 29 commits related to the
shared superblock changes.  It works, but it's obviously not a
permanent fix, especially since we definitely don't want to diverge
from mainline.

Is this issue being worked on?  Don't other distros have similar reports?

Thanks,
Miklos
