proc: Update proc_flush_task_mnt to use d_invalidate
Now that d_invalidate always succeeds and flushes mount points use it in stead of a combination of shrink_dcache_parent and d_drop in proc_flush_task_mnt. This removes the danger of a mount point under /proc/<pid>/... becoming unreachable after the d_drop. Reviewed-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
