I am not sure I fully understand what you mean. But we don't have a
way to test against cgrp_dfl_root while parsing mount-options. They
only way we know that user is trying to mount a default hierarchy is
via the sane_behavior flag. So I need to test against this flag it if
we want to restrict processes inside cgroupns to mounting the default
hierarchy only.
Or are you suggesting that its OK for nsown_capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
processes to mount any cgroup hierarchy (irrespective of their
cgroupns)? I assumed that this will be a undesirable.
