From 1f71ebedb3f8ce9108978168759c8551d873a912 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 19:38:24 -0700 Subject: devpts: correctly set default options devpts_get_sb() calls memset(0) to clear mount options and calls parse_mount_options() if user specified any mount options. The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are non-zero by default. parse_mount_options() restores options to default anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options. So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even for NULL mount options. Bug reported by Eric Paris: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/5/7/448.
