Miklos Szeredi 0bb6fcc13a [PATCH] pivot_root() circular reference fix 
Fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4857

When pivot_root is called from an init script in an initramfs environment,
it causes a circular reference in the mount tree.

The cause of this is that pivot_root() is not prepared to handle pivoting
an unattached mount.  In an initramfs environment, rootfs is the root of
the namespace, and so it is not attached.

This patch fixes this and related problems, by returning -EINVAL if either
the current root or the new root is detached.
