This oops happens with the namespace_sem held and can be triggered by
non-root users.  An all around not pleasant experience.

To avoid this scenario when finding the appropriate source mount to
copy stop the walk up the mnt_master chain when the first source mount
is encountered.

Further rewrite the walk up the last_source mnt_master chain so that
it is clear what is going on.

The reason why the first source mount is special is that it it's
mnt_parent is not a mount in the dest_mnt propagation tree, and as
such termination conditions based up on the dest_mnt mount propgation
tree do not make sense.

To avoid other kinds of confusion last_dest is not changed when
computing last_source.  last_dest is only used once in propagate_one
and that is above the point of the code being modified, so changing
the global variable is meaningless and confusing.

7ae8fd0351 fs/pnode.c: treat zero mnt_group_id-s as unequal
propagate_one(m) calculates "type" argument for copy_tree() like this:

>    if (m->mnt_group_id == last_dest->mnt_group_id) {
>        type = CL_MAKE_SHARED;
>    } else {
>        type = CL_SLAVE;
>        if (IS_MNT_SHARED(m))
>           type |= CL_MAKE_SHARED;
>   }

The "type" argument then governs clone_mnt() behavior with respect to flags
and mnt_master of new mount. When we iterate through a slave group, it is
possible that both current "m" and "last_dest" are not shared (although,
both are slaves, i.e. have non-NULL mnt_master-s). Then the comparison
above erroneously makes new mount shared and sets its mnt_master to
last_source->mnt_master. The patch fixes the problem by handling zero
mnt_group_id-s as though they are unequal.

The similar problem exists in the implementation of "else" clause above
when we have to ascend upward in the master/slave tree by calling:

>    last_source = last_source->mnt_master;
>    last_dest = last_source->mnt_parent;

proper number of times. The last step is governed by
"n->mnt_group_id != last_dest->mnt_group_id" condition that may lie if
both are zero. The patch fixes this case in the same way as the former one.

0c56fe3142 mnt: Don't propagate unmounts to locked mounts
If the first mount in shared subtree is locked don't unmount the
shared subtree.

This is ensured by walking through the mounts parents before children
and marking a mount as unmountable if it is not locked or it is locked
but it's parent is marked.

This allows recursive mount detach to propagate through a set of
mounts when unmounting them would not reveal what is under any locked
mount.

5d88457eb5 mnt: On an unmount propagate clearing of MNT_LOCKED
A prerequisite of calling umount_tree is that the point where the tree
is mounted at is valid to unmount.

If we are propagating the effect of the unmount clear MNT_LOCKED in
every instance where the same filesystem is mounted on the same
mountpoint in the mount tree, as we know (by virtue of the fact
that umount_tree was called) that it is safe to reveal what
is at that mountpoint.

411a938b5a mnt: Delay removal from the mount hash.
- Modify __lookup_mnt_hash_last to ignore mounts that have MNT_UMOUNTED set.
- Don't remove mounts from the mount hash table in propogate_umount
- Don't remove mounts from the mount hash table in umount_tree before
  the entire list of mounts to be umounted is selected.
- Remove mounts from the mount hash table as the last thing that
  happens in the case where a mount has a parent in umount_tree.
  Mounts without parents are not hashed (by definition).

This paves the way for delaying removal from the mount hash table even
farther and fixing the MNT_LOCKED vs MNT_DETACH issue.

c003b26ff9 mnt: In umount_tree reuse mnt_list instead of mnt_hash
umount_tree builds a list of mounts that need to be unmounted.
Utilize mnt_list for this purpose instead of mnt_hash.  This begins to
allow keeping a mount on the mnt_hash after it is unmounted, which is
necessary for a properly functioning MNT_LOCKED implementation.

The fact that mnt_list is an ordinary list makding available list_move
is nice bonus.

8486a7882b mnt: Move the clear of MNT_LOCKED from copy_tree to it's callers.
Clear MNT_LOCKED in the callers of copy_tree except copy_mnt_ns, and
collect_mounts.  In copy_mnt_ns it is necessary to create an exact
copy of a mount tree, so not clearing MNT_LOCKED is important.
Similarly collect_mounts is used to take a snapshot of the mount tree
for audit logging purposes and auditing using a faithful copy of the
tree is important.

This becomes particularly significant when we start setting MNT_LOCKED
on rootfs to prevent it from being unmounted.

f2ebb3a921 smarter propagate_mnt()
The current mainline has copies propagated to *all* nodes, then
tears down the copies we made for nodes that do not contain
counterparts of the desired mountpoint.  That sets the right
propagation graph for the copies (at teardown time we move
the slaves of removed node to a surviving peer or directly
to master), but we end up paying a fairly steep price in
useless allocations.  It's fairly easy to create a situation
where N calls of mount(2) create exactly N bindings, with
O(N^2) vfsmounts allocated and freed in process.

Fortunately, it is possible to avoid those allocations/freeings.
The trick is to create copies in the right order and find which
one would've eventually become a master with the current algorithm.
It turns out to be possible in O(nodes getting propagation) time
and with no extra allocations at all.

One part is that we need to make sure that eventual master will be
created before its slaves, so we need to walk the propagation
tree in a different order - by peer groups.  And iterate through
the peers before dealing with the next group.

Another thing is finding the (earlier) copy that will be a master
of one we are about to create; to do that we are (temporary) marking
the masters of mountpoints we are attaching the copies to.

Either we are in a peer of the last mountpoint we'd dealt with,
or we have the following situation: we are attaching to mountpoint M,
the last copy S_0 had been attached to M_0 and there are sequences
S_0...S_n, M_0...M_n such that S_{i+1} is a master of S_{i},
S_{i} mounted on M{i} and we need to create a slave of the first S_{k}
such that M is getting propagation from M_{k}.  It means that the master
of M_{k} will be among the sequence of masters of M.  On the
other hand, the nearest marked node in that sequence will either
be the master of M_{k} or the master of M_{k-1} (the latter -
in the case if M_{k-1} is a slave of something M gets propagation
from, but in a wrong peer group).

So we go through the sequence of masters of M until we find
a marked one (P).  Let N be the one before it.  Then we go through
the sequence of masters of S_0 until we find one (say, S) mounted
on a node D that has P as master and check if D is a peer of N.
If it is, S will be the master of new copy, if not - the master of S
will be.

That's it for the hard part; the rest is fairly simple.  Iterator
is in next_group(), handling of one prospective mountpoint is
propagate_one().

It seems to survive all tests and gives a noticably better performance
than the current mainline for setups that are seriously using shared
subtrees.

132c94e31b vfs: Carefully propogate mounts across user namespaces
As a matter of policy MNT_READONLY should not be changable if the
original mounter had more privileges than creator of the mount
namespace.

Add the flag CL_UNPRIVILEGED to note when we are copying a mount from
a mount namespace that requires more privileges to a mount namespace
that requires fewer privileges.

When the CL_UNPRIVILEGED flag is set cause clone_mnt to set MNT_NO_REMOUNT
if any of the mnt flags that should never be changed are set.

This protects both mount propagation and the initial creation of a less
privileged mount namespace.

In preparation, this patch changes the API to look more like normal

The patch is rather large because I move over all users in one go to keep
it bisectable.  This impacts the VFS somewhat in terms of lines changed.

afac7cba7e vfs: more mnt_parent cleanups
a) mount --move is checking that ->mnt_parent is non-NULL before
looking if that parent happens to be shared; ->mnt_parent is never
NULL and it's not even an misspelled !mnt_has_parent()

b) pivot_root open-codes is_path_reachable(), poorly.

c) so does path_is_under(), while we are at it.

b2dba1af3c vfs: new internal helper: mnt_has_parent(mnt)
vfsmounts have ->mnt_parent pointing either to a different vfsmount
or to itself; it's never NULL and termination condition in loops
traversing the tree towards root is mnt == mnt->mnt_parent.  At least
one place (see the next patch) is confused about what's going on;
let's add an explicit helper checking it right way and use it in
all places where we need it.  Not that there had been too many,
but...
