I half agree, and as an initial approximation this works.
Ultimately we should be at the point that for mount propagation
that we copy the owner of the from the owner of our parent mount
at the propagation destination.

Mount propagation semantics are a major pain.

Ok.  While I generally agree with the concept this can be simplified some
more.

This should be based on fsuid.  Unless I'm completely confused.

I think getting the mount user from current when we do mount
propagation could be a problem.  In particular I'm pretty
certain in the mount propagation case the mount should be owned
by the user who owns the destination mount that is above us.

How about making the test "if (mnt->mnt_user != &root_user)"

If we unconditionally use the fsuid I think we can get away without
this flag.

If we assign a user to all mount points and root gets to own the
initial set of mounts then we don't need the internal MNT_USER
flag.

Can we please make this a user struct.   That requires a bit of
reference counting but it has uid namespace benefits as well
as making it easy to implement per user mount rlimits.
