Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2014 18:30:08 -0600 Subject: mnt: Add MNT_UMOUNT flag From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 590ce4bcbfb4e0462a720a4ad901e84416080bba upstream. In some instances it is necessary to know if the the unmounting process has begun on a mount. Add MNT_UMOUNT to make that reliably testable. This fix gets used in fixing locked mounts in MNT_DETACH Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
