clone.2, mount.2, unshare.2, proc.5, path_resolution.7: Global fix: s/mount-point namespace/mount namespace/
...
This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers
and and checkpoint/restart in mainstream Linux".
(I avoided the "s", because using the plural strikes me
as klunky English, and anyway we don't talk about
the "PIDs namespace" or the "networks namespace", etc..)
