== SRU Justification ==
A kernel oops occurs if the root user tries to unmout rootfs. This problem can
be avoided by setting MNT_LOCKED on the rootfs mount point.
This commit was included in mainline in 3.19-rc1, but it was not cc'd to stable.
== Fix ==
commit da362b09e42ee0bcaf0356afee6078b4f324baff

umount: Do not allow unmounting rootfs.
== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
