vfs: check unlinked ancestors before mount

Browse source 
We check submounts before doing d_drop() on a non-empty directory dentry in
NFS (have_submounts()), but we do not exclude a racing mount.  Nor do we
prevent mounts to be added to the disconnected subtree using relative paths
after the d_drop().

This patch fixes these issues by checking for unlinked (unhashed, non-root)
ancestors before proceeding with the mount.  This is done with rename
seqlock taken for write and with ->d_lock grabbed on each ancestor in turn,
including our dentry itself.  This ensures that the only one of
check_submounts_and_drop() or has_unlinked_ancestor() can succeed.
