3.2.64-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This is needed before commit 4023bfc9f351 ('be careful with nd->inode
in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()'). A similar change was made
upstream as part of commit b37199e626b3 ('rcuwalk: recheck mount_lock
after mountpoint crossing attempts').
