[patch 01/10] add user mounts to the kernel

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi at suse.cz>

Add ownership information to mounts.

A new mount flag, MS_SETUSER is used to make a mount owned by a user.
If this flag is specified, then the owner will be set to the current
real user id and the mount will be marked with the MNT_USER flag.  On
remount don't preserve previous owner, and treat MS_SETUSER as for a
new mount.  The MS_SETUSER flag is ignored on mount move.

The MNT_USER flag is not copied on any kind of mount cloning:
namespace creation, binding or propagation.  For bind mounts the
cloned mount(s) are set to MNT_USER depending on the MS_SETUSER mount
flag.  In all the other cases MNT_USER is always cleared.

For MNT_USER mounts a "user=UID" option is added to /proc/PID/mounts.
This is compatible with how mount ownership is stored in /etc/mtab.

It is expected, that in the future mount(8) will use MS_SETUSER to
store mount ownership within the kernel.  This would help in
situations, where /etc/mtab is difficult or impossible to work with,
e.g. when using mount propagation.
