[PATCH] autofs4 - fix infamous "Busy inodes after umount ..." message.

[Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net>]

If the automount daemon receives a signal which causes it to sumarily 
terminate the autofs4 module leaks dentries. The same problem exists with 
detached mount requests without the warning.

This patch cleans these dentries at umount.
