When devpts is unmounted, there may be a no-longer-used
IDR tree hanging off the superblock we are about to kill.
This needs to be cleaned up before destroying the SB.
The leak is usually not a big deal because unmounting
devpts is typically done when shutting down the whole
machine. However, shutting down an LXC container instead
of a physical machine exposes the problem (the garbage is
detectable with kmemleak).
