Currently get_tree_bdev and mount_bdev open the block device before
committing to allocating a super block. That creates problems for
restricting the number of writers to a device, and also leads to a
unusual and not very helpful holder (the fs_type).
Reorganize the super block code to first look whether the superblock for
a particular device does already exist and open the block device only if
it doesn't.
[hch: port to before the bdev_handle changes,
duplicate the bdev read-only check from blkdev_get_by_path,
extend the fsfree_mutex coverage to protect against freezes,
fix an open bdev leak when the bdev is frozen,
use the bdev local variable more,
rename the s variable to sb to be more descriptive]
[brauner: remove references to mounts as they're mostly irrelevant]
[brauner & hch: fold fixes for romfs and cramfs for
syzbot+2faac0423fdc9692822b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com]

README
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.
