Subject: mnt: Clarify and correct the disconnect logic in umount_tree
From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f2d0a123bcf16d1a9cf7942ddc98e0ef77862c2b upstream.
rmdir mntpoint will result in an infinite loop when there is
a mount locked on the mountpoint in another mount namespace.
This is because the logic to test to see if a mount should
be disconnected in umount_tree is buggy.
Move the logic to decide if a mount should remain connected to
it's mountpoint into it's own function disconnect_mount so that
clarity of expression instead of terseness of expression becomes
a virtue.
When the conditions where it is invalid to leave a mount connected
are first ruled out, the logic for deciding if a mount should
be disconnected becomes much clearer and simpler.
Fixes: e0c9c0afd2fc958ffa34b697972721d81df8a56f mnt: Update detach_mounts to leave mounts connected
Fixes: ce07d891a0891d3c0d0c2d73d577490486b809e1 mnt: Honor MNT_LOCKED when detaching mounts
