[uml-devel] hostfs mount buglet

[Roger B. <ro...@ro...>]

Hostfs refuses to mount with -o pointing to a symlink (even though
the symlink points to a directory).  The error code is 'Not a directory'.
If you follow the link with a trailing slash it does work.  Sounds
like an lstat being used instead of stat.

mount -t hostfs .... -o symlink    fails
mount -t hostfs .... -o symlink/   works
