Allow a detached tree created by open_tree(..., OPEN_TREE_CLONE) to be attached by move_mount(2). If by the time of final fput() of OPEN_TREE_CLONE-opened file its tree is not detached anymore, it won't be dissolved. move_mount(2) is adjusted to handle detached source. That gives us equivalents of mount --bind and mount --rbind. Thanks also to Alan Jenkins <alan.christopher.jenkins@gmail.com> for providing a whole bunch of ways to break things using this interface.

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 Restructured Text 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.
