Al Viro 3d43541334 BACKPORT: umount(2): move the flag validity checks first
Unfortunately, there's userland code that used to rely upon these
checks being done before anything else to check for UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW
support.  That broke in 41525f56e256 ("fs: refactor ksys_umount").
Separate those from the rest of checks and move them to ksys_umount();
unlike everything else in there, this can be sanely done there.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
