Subject: get rid of propagate_umount() mistakenly treating slaves as busy.
From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 88b368f27a094277143d8ecd5a056116f6a41520 upstream.
The check in __propagate_umount() ("has somebody explicitly mounted
something on that slave?") is done *before* taking the already doomed
victims out of the child lists.
