From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>
For "safe" filesystems allow unprivileged mounting and forced
unmounting.
A filesystem type is considered "safe", if mounting it by an
unprivileged user may not cause a security problem. This is somewhat
subjective, so setting this property is left to userspace (implemented
in the next patch).
Since most filesystems haven't been designed with unprivileged
mounting in mind, a thorough audit is recommended before setting this
property.
Make this a separate integer member in 'struct file_system_type'
instead of a flag, since that is easier to handle by sysctl code.
Move subtype handling from do_kern_mount() into do_new_mount(). All
other callers are kernel-internal and do not need subtype support.
