    Revert "fix mismerge with Trond's stuff (create_mnt_ns() export is gone now)" · a2770d86

    This reverts commit e9496ff4. Quoth Al:
    
     "it's dependent on a lot of other stuff not currently in mainline
      and badly broken with current fs/namespace.c.  Sorry, badly
      out-of-order cherry-pick from old queue.
    
      PS: there's a large pending series reworking the refcounting and
      lifetime rules for vfsmounts that will, among other things, allow to
      rip a subtree away _without_ dissolving connections in it, to be
      garbage-collected when all active references are gone.  It's
      considerably saner wrt "is the subtree busy" logics, but it's nowhere
      near being ready for merge at the moment; this changeset is one of the
      things becoming possible with that sucker, but it certainly shouldn't
      have been picked during this cycle.  My apologies..."
