From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2016 13:44:06 +0200 Subject: isofs: Do not return EACCES for unknown filesystems From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> commit a2ed0b391dd9c3ef1d64c7c3e370f4a5ffcd324a upstream. When isofs_mount() is called to mount a device read-write, it returns EACCES even before it checks that the device actually contains an isofs filesystem. This may confuse mount(8) which then tries to mount all subsequent filesystem types in read-only mode. Fix the problem by returning EACCES only once we verify that the device indeed contains an iso9660 filesystem.
