+         * the unmounts. In theory, the kernel fires /proc/self/mountinfo changes off before returning from
+         * the mount() or umount() syscalls, and thus we should see the changes to the proc file before we
+         * process the waitid() for the /usr/bin/(u)mount processes. However, this is unfortunately racy: we
+         * have to waitid() for processes using P_ALL (since we need to reap unexpected children that got
+         * reparented to PID 1), but when using P_ALL we might end up reaping processes that terminated just

+         * have noticed /proc/self/mountinfo events via epoll). This means event loop priorities for
+         * processing SIGCHLD vs. /proc/self/mountinfo IO events are not as relevant as we want. To fix that
+         * race, let's explicitly scan /proc/self/mountinfo before we start processing /usr/bin/(u)mount
+         * dying. It's ugly, but it makes our ordering systematic again, and makes sure we always see
