Al Viro 1d79230719 path_overmount(): avoid false negatives 
[ Upstream commit 5f31c54938 ]

Holding namespace_sem is enough to make sure that result remains valid.
It is *not* enough to avoid false negatives from __lookup_mnt().  Mounts
can be unhashed outside of namespace_sem (stuck children getting detached
on final mntput() of lazy-umounted mount) and having an unrelated mount
removed from the hash chain while we traverse it may end up with false
negative from __lookup_mnt().  We need to sample and recheck the seqlock
component of mount_lock...

Bug predates the introduction of path_overmount() - it had come from
the code in finish_automount() that got abstracted into that helper.

Reviewed-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
Fixes: 26df6034fd ("fix automount/automount race properly")
Fixes: 6ac3928156 ("fs: allow to mount beneath top mount")

README 

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.
