Subject: mnt: Factor umount_mnt from umount_tree

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

commit 6a46c5735c29175da55b2fa9d53775182422cdd7 upstream.

For future use factor out a function umount_mnt from umount_tree.
This function unhashes a mount and remembers where the mount
was mounted so that eventually when the code makes it to a
sleeping context the mountpoint can be dput.
