fix open/umount race
nameidata_to_filp() drops nd->path or transfers it to opened file. In the former case it's a Bad Idea(tm) to do mnt_drop_write() on nd->path.mnt, since we might race with umount and vfsmount in question might be gone already. Fix: don't drop it, then... IOW, have nameidata_to_filp() grab nd->path in case it transfers it to file and do path_drop() in callers. After they are through with accessing nd->path...
