Al Viro 463ffb2e9d [PATCH] namei fixes (9/19)
New helper: __follow_mount(struct path *path).  Same as follow_mount(), except
that we do *not* do mntput() after the first lookup_mnt().

IOW, original path->mnt stays pinned down.  We also take care to do dput()
before mntput() in the loop body (follow_mount() also needs that reordering,
but that will be done later in the series).

The following are equivalent, assuming that path.mnt == x:
(1)
	follow_mount(&path.mnt, &path.dentry)
(2)
	__follow_mount(&path);
	if (path->mnt != x)
		mntput(x);
(3)
	if (__follow_mount(&path))
		mntput(x);

Callers of follow_mount() in __link_path_walk() converted to (2).

Equivalent transformation + fix for too-late-mntput() race in __follow_mount()
loop.
