This patch solves a problem for a following case. We have a container (a
group of processes in pid and mount namespaces) with a fuse mount. An
init process exits and the kernel kills all process in its pid
namespace. There is a fuse daemon, which handle the fuse mount.
Currently the kernel kills this process and closes all its file
descriptors, but __fput() for them is postponed and they will be
called from a task_work.  Then the kernel starts destroying the mount
namespace and the fuse mount, it sees that a control descriptor for
this mount is alive and sends a request to a fuse daemon:

But we know that a fuse daemon is already dead and the control
descriptor isn't closed completely, because __fput() was postponed.

This patch calls task_work_run() before destroying namespaces to
complete closing all process files.

In the upstream kernel deactivate_super() is called from a task_work too,
so there is not this problem. But we can't backport these changes from
the upstream, because they are too big:
