3.16.63-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: "Eric W. Biederman" ebiederm@xmission.com
commit 25d202ed820ee347edec0bf3bf553544556bf64b upstream.
It was recently pointed out that the one instance of testing MNT_LOCKED outside of the namespace_sem is in ksys_umount.
Fix that by adding a test inside of do_umount with namespace_sem and the mount_lock held. As it helps to fail fails the existing test is maintained with an additional comment pointing out that it may be racy because the locks are not held.
