    vfs: Pass data, ns, and ns->userns to mount_ns · d91ee87d

    Today what is normally called data (the mount options) is not passed
    to fill_super through mount_ns.
    
    Pass the mount options and the namespace separately to mount_ns so
    that filesystems such as proc that have mount options, can use
    mount_ns.
    
    Pass the user namespace to mount_ns so that the standard permission
    check that verifies the mounter has permissions over the namespace can
    be performed in mount_ns instead of in each filesystems .mount method.
    Thus removing the duplication between mqueuefs and proc in terms of
    permission checks.  The extra permission check does not currently
    affect the rpc_pipefs filesystem and the nfsd filesystem as those
    filesystems do not currently allow unprivileged mounts.  Without
    unpvileged mounts it is guaranteed that the caller has already passed
    capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) which guarantees extra permission check will
    pass.
    
    Update rpc_pipefs and the nfsd filesystem to ensure that the network
    namespace reference is always taken in fill_super and always put in kill_sb
    so that the logic is simpler and so that errors originating inside of
    fill_super do not cause a network namespace leak.
