This is absolutely wrong.  For one thing, you are running those suckers on
fairly deep stack now, which is a bloody bad idea for a lot reasons -
final mntput() can come with a lot of stack space consumed.  For another,
I'm really not convinced that what you are doing won't bugger the ordering
to hell and back - not without a detailed analysis I don't see in these
patches.

If you want to be able to grab references by those suckers, this is a very
wrong way to go.  Look at legitimize_mnt() for better approach, and yes,
you need to be able to cope with "too late, it's already doomed".  Or you'll
trade those -EBUSY for race with umount(2) returning before the fs shutdown
is complete.
