Which in practice is totally uninteresting.  Only the global root user can
do it, and it is just a stupid thing to do.

However that is no excuse to allow a silly way to oops the kernel.

We can avoid this silly problem by setting MNT_LOCKED on the rootfs
mount point and thus avoid needing any special cases in the unmount
code.
