The key point is that if you do 'cat /proc/mounts' with your
current patch, you see all the LXC container FUSE mounts. These
mounts should *not* be visible on the host. Only the libvirt_lxc
process and the container itself shoudl see the mounts. This is
why you must not start FUSE until after the unshare() call in
libvirt_lxc. This also ensures that the FUSE mount is automatically
destroyed when libvirt_lxc dies, without you needing to unregister
or unmount it.
