[PATCH] lock exclusively in collect_mounts() and drop_collected_mounts()
Taking namespace_sem shared there isn't worth the trouble, especially with vfsmount ID allocation about to be added. That way we know that umount_tree(), copy_tree() and clone_mnt() are _always_ serialized by namespace_sem. umount_tree() still needs vfsmount_lock (it manipulates hash chains, among other things), but that's a separate story.
