That was my first instinct as well, but d_mountpoint() is true for
dentries that have a filesystem mounted on them (e.g., after mount
/dev/sda1 /mnt, the dentry for "/mnt"), not the dentry that is mounted.
I poked around the mount code for awhile and couldn't come up with
anything using the existing interface. Mounting subvolumes bubbles down
to mount_subtree(), which doesn't really leave any traces of which
subvolume is mounted except for the dentry in struct vfsmount.
(As far as I can tell, under the covers subvolume deletion is more or
less equivalent to an rm -rf, and we obviously don't do anything to stop
users from doing that on the root of their mounted filesystem, but it
appears that users expect the original behavior.)
Here's an idea: mark mount root dentries as such in the VFS and check it
in the Btrfs code. Adding fsdevel ML for comments
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/30/125 is the original message).
