get rid of ->mnt_longterm
it's enough to set ->mnt_ns of internal vfsmounts to something
distinct from all struct mnt_namespace out there; then we can
just use the check for ->mnt_ns != NULL in the fast path of
mntput_no_expire()
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <[email protected]>The intent was to test if the real_mount(vfsmount)->mnt_ns was NULL_OR_ERR but the code is actually testing real_mount(vfsmount) and always returning true.
The result is d_absolute_path returning paths it should be hiding.
