Subject: Re: [PATCH 22/41] union-mount: Some checks during namespace changes

The text "add some additional checks" seems to imply "code I forgot to add
earlier".  If this patch is better merged with some other one, then do so;
otherwise, the subject line and patch header need to give this patch more
credit than this: better explain what the checks are more precisely.

I'd avoid using 'exit' as a label and goto name; use "out_err" or some other
out_XXX label.  'exit' is almost a reserved word in C. :-)
