Michael Kerrisk dc95a3a39f mount_namespaces.7: Clarify implications for other NS if mount point is removed in one NS
If a mount point is deleted or renamed or removed in one mount
namespace, this will cause an object that is mounted at that
location in another mount namespace to be unmounted (as verified
by experiment). This was implied by the existing text, but it is
better to make this detail explicit.
