It hadn't been needed since we'd sanitized the logics in
mark_mounts_for_expiry() (which, in turn, used to be a
rudiment of bad old times when namespace_sem was per-ns).

passing *any* namespace root to __d_path() as root is equivalent
to just passing it {NULL, NULL}; no need to bother with finding
the root of our namespace in there.

(mnt,mnt_mountpoint) pair is conceptually wrong; if you want
to use it for generating pathname and for nothing else *and*
if you know that vfsmount tree is unchanging, you can get
away with that, but the right solution for that is (mnt,mnt_root).

The handling of mount flags in set_mnt_shared() got a little tangled
up during previous cleanups, with the following problems:
* MNT_PNODE_MASK is defined as a literal constant when it should be a
bitwise xor of other MNT_* flags
* set_mnt_shared() clears and then sets MNT_SHARED (part of MNT_PNODE_MASK)
* MNT_PNODE_MASK could use a comment in mount.h
* MNT_PNODE_MASK is a terrible name, change to MNT_SHARED_MASK
This patch fixes these problems.

No one is calling this anymore as everyone has switched to
invalidate_mapping_pages long time ago. Also update a few
references to it in comments. nfs has two more, but I can't
easily figure what they are actually referring to, so I left
them as-is.

re-order structure super_block to remove 16 bytes of alignment padding
on 64bit builds.
This shrinks the size of super_block from 712 to 696 bytes so requiring
one fewer 64 byte cache lines.

path to mnt/mnt->mnt_root is no worse than that to
mnt->mnt_parent/mnt->mnt_mountpoint *and* needs no
pinning the sucker down (mnt is not going away and
mnt->mnt_root won't change)
