... as the comments in reparent() clearly say. As it is, we reparent
*all* overmounts of the mounts being taken out, including those that
are taken out themselves. It's not only a potentially massive slowdown
(on a pathological setup we might end up with O(N^2) time for N mounts
being kicked out), it can end up with incorrect ->overmount in the
surviving mounts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
