autofs4: fix direct mount pending expire race

For direct and offset type mounts that are covered by another mount we
cannot check the AUTOFS_INF_EXPIRING flag during a path walk which leads
to lookups walking into an expiring mount while it is being expired.

For example, for the direct multi-mount map entry with a couple of
offsets:

/race/mm1  /      <server1>:/<path1>
           /om1   <server2>:/<path2>
           /om2   <server1>:/<path3>

an autofs trigger mount is mounted on /race/mm1 and when accessed it is
over mounted and trigger mounts made for /race/mm1/om1 and /race/mm1/om2.
So it isn't possible for path walks to see the expiring flag at all and
they happily walk into the file system while it is expiring.

When expiring these mounts follow_down() must stop at the autofs mount and
all processes must block in the ->follow_link() method (except the daemon)
until the expire is complete.  This is done by decrementing the d_mounted
field of the autofs trigger mount root dentry until the expire is
completed.  In ->follow_link() all processes wait on the expire and the
mount following is completed for the daemon until the expire is complete.
