Re: [d_path 6/7] Filter out disconnected paths from /proc/mounts
There is some disagreement what /proc/mounts should include. Currently it reports all mounts from the current namespace and doesn't include lazy unmounts. This leads to ambiguities with the rootfs (which is an internal mount irrelevant to user-space except in the initrd), and in chroots. With this and the next patch, /proc/mounts only reports the mounts reachable for the current process, which makes a lot more sense IMO. If the current process is rooted in the namespace root (which it usually is), it will see all mounts except for the rootfs.
