locking rules:
may block BKL
get_sb yes yes
kill_sb yes yes
-->get_sb() returns error or a locked superblock (exclusive on ->s_umount).
+->get_sb() returns error or 0 with locked superblock attached to the vfsmount
+(exclusive on ->s_umount).
->kill_sb() takes a write-locked superblock, does all shutdown work on it,
unlocks and drops the reference.
