    the program umount.c unmounts devices.
    This program calls a function called umount(...)
    this function calls the kernel function do_umount
    located in super.c in kernel.
    =================================
    I can not find the function umount!
    Where is it?

    FYI:  There is a kernel function called sys_umount,
    the comments in this section say it is "umount"!

    If this is true how does sys_umount get associated with umount?
