Turns out I messed up with one of Neil's review comments. Here is yet another
update.
With this fix, everything works as expected in testing now. sys_getcwd
returns -ENOENT for paths not connected to the chroot. /proc/mounts
and /proc/$pid/mountstats never contain a relative path. gnome-vfs-daemon
seems quite happy again.

Fix __d_path() for lazy unmounts and make it unambiguous
First, when d_path() hits a lazily unmounted mount point, it tries to
prepend the name of the lazily unmounted dentry to the path name. It
gets this wrong, and also overwrites the slash that separates the name
from the following pathname component.
Second, it isn't always possible to tell from the __d_path result
whether the specified root and rootmnt (i.e., the chroot) was reached:
lazy unmounts of bind mounts will produce a path that does start with a
non-slash so we can tell from that, but other lazy unmounts will produce
a path that starts with a slash, just like "ordinary" paths.
Third, sys_getcwd() shouldn't return disconnected paths. The patch
checks for that, and makes it fail with -ENOENT in that case.
The attached patch cleans up __d_path() to fix the bug with overlapping
pathname components. It also adds a @fail_deleted argument, which allows
to get rid of some of the mess in sys_getcwd(). We make sure that paths
will only start with a slash if the path leads all the way up to the
root. If the resulting path would otherwise be empty, we return "."
instead so that some users of seq_path for files in /proc won't break.
The @fail_deleted argument allows sys_getcwd() to be simplified.
Grabbing the dcache_lock can be moved into __d_path().
The @fail_deleted argument could be added to d_path() as well: this would
allow callers to recognize deleted files without having to resort to the
ambiguous check for the " (deleted)" string at the end of the pathnames.
This is not currently done, but it might be worthwhile.
