Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] fs: qemu_fw_cfg: make use of the automount
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 07:23:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251125062603.2614867-2-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

We assume /mnt/fw_cfg to be the fw_cfg mount path at other places
already, so let's drop some complexity by just using the automount.
