I started thinking about a good userspace API, and I'm skeptical about
the proposed kernel API being good for userspace as well.

Maybe something like this would be the simplest and least likely to be
misused (and also very similar to opendir/readdir/closedir):

handle = listmount_open(mnt_id, flags);
for (;;) {
    child_id = listmount_next(handle);
    if (child_id == 0)
        break;
    /* do something with child_id */
}
listmount_close(handle)

Thanks,
Miklos
