[Devel] [PATCH rh7] ve: remove ve->root_path

[Andrei Vagin]

It was added a long time ago, when a container was executed in a host
mount namespace. Now ve->root_path is used only in one place
follow_dotdot(), but event there it looks useless, if we run a container
in a separate mount namespace.

ve->root_path can holds a mount tree and now it is impossible to umount
it, when a container changes its root (pivot_root())
