What might work instead is to add a check in security_sb_kern_mount.
Then it would need to check s_user_ns, that way if proc, sysfs, etc.
use sget_userns(..., &init_user_ns) they can still be mounted in
containers.
It would be nicer to have a hook after sget but before fill_super so
that a bunch of work doesn't have to be done and then undone. Right now
there doesn't seem to be any suitable hook.
