path.mnt in open_namei() set to mirror nd->mnt.
nd->mnt is set in 3 places in that function - path_lookup() in the beginning,
__follow_down() loop after do_last: and __do_follow_link() call after
do_link:.
We set path.mnt to nd->mnt after path_lookup() and __do_follow_link(). In
__follow_down() loop we use &path.mnt instead of &nd->mnt and set nd->mnt to
path.mnt immediately after that loop.
Obviously equivalent transformation.
