Subject[PATCH] sysfs: fix namespace refcnt leak
Hi Tejun,

I think we have to fix kernfs in order to fix refcnt leak in sysfs
and cgroupfs. This fix is for 3.14, but it creates conflicts for
cgroup-next.

====================

As mount() and kill_sb() is not a one-to-one match, we shoudn't get
ns refcnt unconditionally in sysfs_mount(), and instead we should
get the refcnt only when kernfs_mount() allocated a new superblock.
