Ah, sure. It should be NOT before master_is_external, like this

   (fsroot_mounted(m) || root_is_visible(m)) && !master_is_external()

Provided master_is_external() is false for private mounts, this should
handle Oleg's case with mount --make-rprivate, but in suboptimal way --
all mountpoints will be bind-mounted from host with MS_SLAVE flag.
