[PATCH 4.0 118/220] mnt: Update detach_mounts to leave mounts connected

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat May 02 2015 - 15:20:28 EST


4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e0c9c0afd2fc958ffa34b697972721d81df8a56f upstream.

Now that it is possible to lazily unmount an entire mount tree and
leave the individual mounts connected to each other add a new flag
UMOUNT_CONNECTED to umount_tree to force this behavior and use
this flag in detach_mounts.

This closes a bug where the deletion of a file or directory could
trigger an unmount and reveal data under a mount point.
