3.11.10.15 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Vasily Averin <vvs at parallels.com>
commit 295dc39d941dc2ae53d5c170365af4c9d5c16212 upstream.
Currently umount on symlink blocks following umount:
/vz is separate mount
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jul 19 01:14 testdir
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 Jul 19 01:16 testlink -> /vz/testdir
umount: /vz/testlink: not mounted (expected)
umount: /vz: device is busy. (unexpected)
In this case mountpoint_last() gets an extra refcount on path->mnt
