Linux kernel source tree
Recent rework moved block device closing out of sb->put_super() and into sb->kill_sb() to avoid deadlocks as s_umount is held in put_super() and blkdev_put() can end up taking s_umount again. That means we need to move the removal of the superblock from @fs_supers out of generic_shutdown_super() and into deactivate_locked_super() to ensure that concurrent mounters don't fail to open block devices that are still in use because blkdev_put() in sb->kill_sb() hasn't been called yet. We can now do this as we can make iterators through @fs_super and @super_blocks wait without holding s_umount. Concurrent mounts will wait until a dying superblock is fully dead so until sb->kill_sb() has been called and SB_DEAD been set. Concurrent iterators can already discard any SB_DYING superblock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
