[patch 07/10] allow unprivileged bind mounts

[Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>]

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>

Allow bind mounts to unprivileged users if the following conditions
are met:

  - user submounts are permitted on the mountpoint's mount
  - mountpoint is not a symlink or special file
  - mountpoint is not a sticky directory or is owned by the current user
  - mountpoint is writable by user
  - the number of user mounts is below the maximum

Unprivileged mounts imply MS_SETUSER, and will also have the "nosuid"
and "nodev" mount flags set.
