[PATCH] proc: Do not invalidate dentries with submounts

[ebiederm@xmission.com (Eric W. Biederman)]

If the dcache path to a mount point is ever broken it becomes
impossible to unmount it, and we leak a vfsmount.  Therefore it is not
valid to invalidate dentries with mount points at or below them.

This patch uses the have_submounts test as the other network
filesystem revalidate routines do.
