[PATCH 12/12] proc: Update proc_flush_task_mnt to use d_invalidate

[Eric W. Biederman]

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.
