What's happening is that some kernel developers don't like Linus's

Use d_path() instead of seq_path when generating /proc/mounts and

Signed-off-by:
First, when __d_path() hits a lazily unmounted mount point, it tries to prepend
the name of the lazily unmounted dentry to the path name. It gets this wrong,
