Subject: [PATCH 5/7] autofs4 - fix direct mount pending expire race

For direct and offset type mounts that are covered by another mount
we cannot check the AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag during a path walk
which leads to lookups walking into an expiring mount while it is
being expired.

For example, for the direct multi-mount map entry with a couple of
offsets:

/race/mm1  /      <server1>:/<path1>
           /om1   <server2>:/<path2>
           /om2   <server1>:/<path3>

an autofs trigger mount is mounted on /race/mm1 and when accessed
it is over mounted and trigger mounts made for /race/mm1/om1 and
/race/mm1/om2. So it isn't possible for path walks to see the
expiring flag at all and they happily walk into the file system
while it is expiring.

When expiring these mounts follow_down() must stop at the autofs
mount and all processes must block in the ->follow_link() method
(except the daemon) until the expire is complete. This is done by
decrementing the d_mounted field of the autofs trigger mount root
dentry until the expire is completed. In ->follow_link() all
processes wait on the expire and the mount following is completed
for the daemon until the expire is complete.
