Interesting... So you are getting a lot of mntput() with ->mnt_ns being
NULL? I wonder which type it is... Note that anything mounted will
have non-NULL ->mnt_ns until umount and anything obtained via
kern_mount/kern_mount_data will also have a non-NULL ->mnt_ns - until
kern_unmount().
Could you try to gather stats of that sort? Normally that path should
be only hit by fput() when we have a lazy-unmounted fs and close an opened
file on it...
I see one potential stupidity in that area (simple_pin_fs() ought to set
->mnt_ns, with simple_release_fs() clearing it), but there's not a lot
of fs types that would use the damn thing...
