Won't compile anyway if you have any of the following filesystems.
mullet:/usr/tmp/linux-2.1.44/fs$ grep -l s_mounted */* affs/inode.c fat/inode.c hpfs/hpfs_fs.c isofs/inode.c minix/inode.c ncpfs/inode.c nfsd/export.c nfsd/vfs.c romfs/inode.c smbfs/inode.c sysv/inode.c ufs/ufs_super.c umsdos/dir.c umsdos/inode.c umsdos/rdir.c
Looks easy enough to fix, but I won't provide a patch here. I'd only be modifying these files similarly to others that have been patched, without fully understanding the code. ("Since when has that been a requirement before posting half-baked patches?", I hear you ask. :-) )
