commit 29cb48594b873f6193d6327097e504bd3e2314de upstream
We need to check for s_instances to make sure we don't bother working
against a filesystem that is beeing unmounted, and we need to call
put_super to make sure a superblock is freed when we race against
umount. Also no need to keep sb_lock after we got a reference on it.
