I think this should be:

static bool permit_umount(struct vfsmount *mnt, int flags)
{
	if ((mnt->mnt_uid != current->fsuid) &&	!capable(CAP_SETUID))
        	return false;

	if ((flags & MNT_FORCE) && !capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
		return false;

	return true;
}

I.e. 
  MNT_USER gone.
  compare against fsuid.
  Only require setuid for unmounts unless force is specified.

  I suspect we can allow MNT_FORCE for non-privileged users 
  as well if we can trust the filesystem.
