Al Viro 0ddfb62f5d fix the softlockups in attach_recursive_mnt()
In case when we mounting something on top of a large stack of overmounts,
all of them being peers of each other, we get quadratic time by the
depth of overmount stack.  Easily fixed by doing commit_tree() before
reparenting the overmount; simplifies commit_tree() as well - it doesn't
need to skip the already mounted stuff that had been reparented on top
of the new mounts.

Since we are holding mount_lock through both reparenting and call of
commit_tree(), the order does not matter from the mount hash point
of view.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
