Al Viro 591f796257 attach_recursive_mnt(): do not lock the covering tree when sliding something under it
[ Upstream commit ce7df19686530920f2f6b636e71ce5eb1d9303ef ]

If we are propagating across the userns boundary, we need to lock the
mounts added there.  However, in case when something has already
been mounted there and we end up sliding a new tree under that,
the stuff that had been there before should not get locked.

IOW, lock_mnt_tree() should be called before we reparent the
preexisting tree on top of what we are adding.

Fixes: 3bd045cc9c ("separate copying and locking mount tree on cross-userns copies")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
