There's a mistake in commit2be7828c9f("get rid of autofs_getpath()") that affects kernels from v5.13.0, basically missed because of me not fully testing the change for Al. The problem is that the hash calculation for the wait name qstr hasn't been updated to account for the change to use dentry_path_raw(). This prevents the correct matching an existing wait resulting in multiple notifications being sent to the daemon for the same mount which must not occur. The problem wasn't discovered earlier because it only occurs when multiple processes trigger a request for the same mount concurrently so it only shows up in more aggressive testing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
