I think I know what happened here:

umount
deativate_super(sb)
dput(subdir)
subdir->d_count--
d_release(subdir)
deactivate_super(sb)
shrink_dcache_for_umount(sb)
BUG(root->d_count)!!
root->d_count--

I use this script to reproduce the bug:

mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /mnt
mkdir /mnt/sub
sleep 100 < /mnt/sub &
kill $!
wait $!
umount /mnt
