Al Viro 2010464cfa change calling conventions for lock_mount() et.al.
1) pinned_mountpoint gets a new member - struct mount *parent.
Set only if we locked the sucker; ERR_PTR() - on failed attempt.

2) do_lock_mount() et.al. return void and set ->parent to
	* on success with !beneath - mount corresponding to path->mnt
	* on success with beneath - the parent of mount corresponding
to path->mnt
	* in case of error - ERR_PTR(-E...).
IOW, we get the mount we will be actually mounting upon or ERR_PTR().

3) we can't use CLASS, since the pinned_mountpoint is placed on
hlist during initialization, so we define local macros:
	LOCK_MOUNT(mp, path)
	LOCK_MOUNT_MAYBE_BENEATH(mp, path, beneath)
	LOCK_MOUNT_EXACT(mp, path)
All of them declare and initialize struct pinned_mountpoint mp,
with unlock_mount done via __cleanup().

Users converted.

lock_mount() is unused now; removed.

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.
