If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Jeffery commit ce8a5dbdf9e709bdaf4618d7ef8cceb91e8adc69 upstream. When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to only check if it's a mount point. For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at expire. This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and continue. The nostrict option is meant to allow mounting in this case.
