There's a new check added to dentry_open():

We need to pass a mountpoint in the call to dentry_open() in xfs_dm_rdwr()
to avoid this code.

Should be defined in fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_linux.h, right?
It's not currently in xfs_linux.h.  It's needed for mntget().  I saw that
xfs_ioctl.c uses mntget() and pulls in linux/mount.h directly so I followed
suit.  I can add it to xfs_linux.h if you prefer.

As I previously suggested, please use XFS_M(mnt->mnt_sb) for this.

Sorry, missed that one.
