make sure that mntns_install() doesn't end up with referral for root
new flag: LOOKUP_DOWN. If the starting point is overmounted, cross into whatever's mounted on top, triggering referrals et.al. Use that instead of follow_down_one() loop in mntns_install(), handle errors properly. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
