The process's root and cwd vfsmounts are used permanently, but
this last_vfsmount passed via task_struct behaves like temporary variable
pushed on stack memory.
In other words, last_vfsmount becomes NULL when it becomes invalid.

|   ret = vfs_create(dir, dentry, mode, nd);
|   task->last_vfsmount = prev_mnt;
|   mntput(mnt);
|   return ret;
| }

I agree that keeping last_vfsmount after it lost it's reference count is bad, 
but
I don't understand why keeping last_vfsmount while it has it's reference count 
is bad too.

Exactly.  Having a vfsmount other than the current processes root or
current working directory in task_struct doesn't make any sense.

NACK to this. Passing function parameters through the task_struct is
