Subject: create_mnt_ns: unidiomatic use of list_add()
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b1983cd897ec06080ec4884989c6a3f1e7ee7dce;p=linux-beck.git

create_mnt_ns: unidiomatic use of list_add()

while list_add(A, B) and list_add(B, A) are equivalent when both A and B
are guaranteed to be empty, the usual idiom is list_add(what, where),
not the other way round...  Not a bug per se, but only by accident and
it makes RTFS harder for no good reason.
