Merge tag 'fs.mount.propagation.fix.v6.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping

Pull mount propagation fix from Christian Brauner:
 "The propagate_mnt() function handles mount propagation when creating
  mounts and propagates the source mount tree @source_mnt to all
  applicable nodes of the destination propagation mount tree headed by
  @dest_mnt.

  Unfortunately it contains a bug where it fails to terminate at peers
  of @source_mnt when looking up copies of the source mount that become
  masters for copies of the source mount tree mounted on top of slaves
  in the destination propagation tree causing a NULL dereference.

  This fixes that bug (with a long commit message for a seven character
  fix but hopefully it'll help us fix issues faster in the future rather
  than having to go through the pain of having to relearn everything
  once more)"
