Did I miss a comment or a patch where that happened? I looked over the patchset and comments yesterday and didn't recall seeing anything about shuffling the access control checks.Gentle ping on this. I'm asking because I know there have been issues lately with the lists and some mail providers and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything, I double checked lore again and didn't see anything there either, but I might be missing it.
Sorry, I'm traveling so I just didn't see this. Please see: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git/commit/?h=vfs.mount&id=dc14fa93943918bee898d75d7ae72fc3623ce9ce https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git/commit/?h=vfs.mount&id=de17643cbf9b0282990bb9cf0e0bf01710c9ec03 I've folded the fixup into these patches. I probably just accidently dropped the diff from my reply.
