When there is no mount at the base of a mount tree (rootless multi-mount)
there is a small amount of time when both DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT and
DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT are clear. This occassionally alows a process
to pass instead of bock leading to an incorrect fail return. Keeping
the DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set all the time resolves the problem.
