The attached change seems to fix the lazy-umount problem.

I can't test any more at the moment, as my laptop died today :). But I
have no objection to this.
It would be more fun if there was a way to support it :), but I don't
have a genuine reason to want it. And you couldn't use it for fully
general purposes anyway, because umount2( , MNT_DETACH) is defined as
separating all the child mounts.
P.S. Regarding the issue with the namespace loop. My strawman solution
would be for graft_tree() to silently detach any NS file mounts that
have a sequence number less than or equal to the namespace they are
being mounted into.
