Since each mount has a user can we just make this a per user rlimit?

If we are going to implement a sysctl at this point I think it should
be a global limit that doesn't care if who you are.  Even root can
have recursive mounts that attempt to get out of control.

Also currently you are not checking the max_users.  It looks like
you do this in a later patch but still it is a little strange to
allow user own mounts and have accounting but to not check the
limit at this state.
