FWIW, since Ian appears to agree that we want ->d_manage() on the mount
crossing at the end of umount(2) lookup, here's a much simpler solution -
kill mountpoint_last() and switch to using lookup_last(). As a side
benefit, LOOKUP_NO_REVAL also goes away. It's possible to trim the
things even more (path_mountpoint() is very similar to path_lookupat()
at that point, and it's not hard to make the differences conditional on
something like LOOKUP_UMOUNT); I would rather do that part in the
cleanups series - the one below is easier to backport.
Aleksa, Ian - could you see if the patch below works for you?
commit e56b43b971a7c08762fceab330a52b7245041dbc

reimplement path_mountpoint() with less magic
... and get rid of a bunch of bugs in it. Background:
the reason for path_mountpoint() is that umount() really doesn't
want attempts to revalidate the root of what it's trying to umount.
The thing we want to avoid actually happen from complete_walk();
solution was to do something parallel to normal path_lookupat()
and it both went overboard and got the boilerplate subtly
(and not so subtly) wrong.
A better solution is to do pretty much what the normal path_lookupat()
does, but instead of complete_walk() do unlazy_walk(). All it takes
to avoid that ->d_weak_revalidate() call... mountpoint_last() goes
away, along with everything it got wrong, and so does the magic around
LOOKUP_NO_REVAL.
Another source of bugs is that when we traverse mounts at the final
location (and we need to do that - umount . expects to get whatever's
overmounting ., if any, out of the lookup) we really ought to take
care of ->d_manage() - as it is, manual umount of autofs automount
in progress can lead to unpleasant surprises for the daemon. Easily
solved by using handle_lookup_down() instead of follow_mount().
