Bug is easily reproduced by this script:
for i in {1..300} ; do
mkdir $i
while true ; do
mount -t tmpfs none $i
dd if=/dev/zero of=$i/test bs=1M count=$(($RANDOM % 100)) status=noxfer
umount $i
done &
done
At 6xCPU node with 8Gb RAM. Kernel is very unstable after this accident. =)
Kernel with this patch is working fine for at least an hour.
Kernel log:
[ 584.544461] VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of tmpfs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day...

This igrab() can race with super-block deactivating process:

To avoid this race after this patch shmem_writepage() also try grab sb->s_active.
If sb->s_active == 0 adding to the shmem_swaplist not required, because
super-block deactivation in progress and swap-entries will be released soon.
