From: John Johansen <john.johansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
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. This patch fixes that; if a process was in directory
/foo/bar and /foo got lazily unmounted, the old result was ``foobar'' (note the
missing slash), while the new result with this patch is ``/foo/bar''.
