Having spent some time staring at some of the NFS code very recently, I can't help but suggest: Would it perhaps be enough to decide whether to ask for labels based on (NFS_SB(dentry->d_sb)->caps & NFS_CAP_SECURITY_LABEL)? It is set when mounting the FS iff some LSM confirms via the security_sb_*_mnt_opts() hook that it wants the filesystem to give it labels (or at least that's how I interpret the cryptic name) [1]. It's just a shot in the dark, but it seems to fit this use case.
