OK...  BTW, speaking of this one:

-static int mnt_id_start = 0;
+static int mnt_id_start;
 static int mnt_group_start = 1;

this deserves a separate NAK; explicit init here is actually more clear -
the variable is more or less analogous to mnt_group_start and it's less
distracting to have initializers spelled out in similar way as well.

-	if ((child_mnt = __lookup_mnt(path->mnt, path->dentry, 1)))
+	child_mnt = __lookup_mnt(path->mnt, path->dentry, 1);
+	if (child_mnt)
 		mntget(child_mnt);
 	br_read_unlock(&vfsmount_lock);
 	return child_mnt;

Maybe, maybe not; in the #vfsmount-guts I seriously pondered turning that
into
	child_mnt = ...;
	if (child_mnt) {
		mnt_add_count(child_mnt);
		br_read_unlock(...);
		return &child_mnt->mnt;
	} else {
		br_read_unlock(...);
		return NULL;
	}
Hell knows...  Since __lookup_mnt() returns struct mount now *and* lookup_mnt()
returns struct vfsmount (much shrunk subset of the original; almost nothing
in there is needed for anything outside of core VFS code) we need if or ?:
after unlock as well.  So it might make sense to split the codepaths once...

-	if (flags & MNT_FORCE && sb->s_op->umount_begin) {
+	if (flags & MNT_FORCE && sb->s_op->umount_begin)
 		sb->s_op->umount_begin(sb);
-	}

Probably.  It used to be just a method call, then it had grown lock/unlock
around it, then lock went down into the method instances and the compound
statement stayed.
 
-static int do_add_mount(struct vfsmount *newmnt, struct path *path, int mnt_flags)
+static int
+do_add_mount(struct vfsmount *newmnt, struct path *path, int mnt_flags)

I don't mind BSD style like that, but again, check #vfsmount-guts; this
one takes struct mount * now, so that line happens to be below 80 cols.

-static int select_submounts(struct vfsmount *parent, struct list_head *graveyard)
+static int
+select_submounts(struct vfsmount *parent, struct list_head *graveyard)

Ditto.

-		struct vfsmount *mnt = list_entry(tmp, struct vfsmount, mnt_child);
+		struct vfsmount *mnt = list_entry(tmp, struct vfsmount,
+						  mnt_child);

Ditto (mnt_child moved into struct mount now)
 
-	if (!(page = __get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL)))
+	page = __get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL);
+	if (!page)
 		return -ENOMEM;

Not sure...  In general I'd agree, but in this case...
