So, this is already upstream, I'll check the other bit.

perf trace beauty: Alias 'umount' to 'umount2'

Before:

# perf trace -e *mount* umount /dev/mapper/fedora-home /s
11.576 ( 0.004 ms) umount/3138 umount2(arg0: 94501956754656, arg1: 0, arg2: 1, arg3: 140051050083104, arg4: 4, arg5: 94501956755136) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
#

After:

# perf trace -e *mount* umount /s
0.000 ( 9.241 ms): umount/5251 umount2(name: 0x55f74a986480) = 0
