But, UBIFS has onething different, sb_test() needs volume information which comes from private superblock, so UBFIS private superblock(struct ubifs_info) is allocated in ubifs_mount(). Here, I prefer to keep private superblock allocation still in ubifs_mount(for new mount API, it is called ubifs_get_tree).

Fine, we've come to an agreement.
