mnt: Refactor the logic for mounting sysfs and proc in a user namespace
Fresh mounts of proc and sysfs are a very special case that works very much like a bind mount. Unfortunately the current structure can not preserve the MNT_LOCK... mount flags. Therefore refactor the logic into a form that can be modified to preserve those lock bits. Add a new filesystem flag FS_USERNS_VISIBLE that requires some mount of the filesystem be fully visible in the current mount namespace, before the filesystem may be mounted. Move the logic for calling fs_fully_visible from proc and sysfs into fs/namespace.c where it has greater access to mount namespace state. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
