How does it relate to this 'propagation mask' right above it? If there's some code out there which masks out which MNT flags get propagated and which don't, then you need to make a decision whether MNT_UNION needs to be propagated as well. Either way, please document your decision in a comment here so no one will have to ask the same question again.
