Subject: [4.19.y PATCH] tmpfs: fix unable to remount nr_inodes from limited to unlimited
Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2019 21:11:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191204131137.10388-1-yukuai3@huawei.com> (raw)

tmpfs support 'size', 'nr_blocks' and 'nr_inodes' mount options. mount or
remount them to zero means unlimited. 'size' and 'br_blocks' can remount
from limited to unlimited, while 'nr_inodes' can't.

The problem is fixed since upstream commit 0b5071dd323d ("
shmem_parse_options(): use a separate structure to keep the results"). But
in order to backport it, the amount of related patches need to backport is
huge. 

So, I made some local changes to fix the problem.
