Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull usernamespace mount fixes from Eric Biederman:
"Way back in October Andrey Vagin reported that umount(MNT_DETACH)
could be used to defeat MNT_LOCKED. As I worked to fix this I
discovered that combined with mount propagation and an appropriate
selection of shared subtrees a reference to a directory on an
unmounted filesystem is not necessary.
That MNT_DETACH is allowed in user namespace in a form that can break
MNT_LOCKED comes from my early misunderstanding what MNT_DETACH does.
To avoid breaking existing userspace the conflict between MNT_DETACH
and MNT_LOCKED is fixed by leaving mounts that are locked to their
parents in the mount hash table until the last reference goes away.
While investigating this issue I also found an issue with
__detach_mounts. The code was unnecessarily and incorrectly
triggering mount propagation. Resulting in too many mounts going away
when a directory is deleted, and too many cpu cycles are burned while
doing that.
Looking some more I realized that __detach_mounts by only keeping
mounts connected that were MNT_LOCKED it had the potential to still
leak information so I tweaked the code to keep everything locked
together that possibly could be.
This code was almost ready last cycle but Al invented fs_pin which
slightly simplifies this code but required rewrites and retesting, and
I have not been in top form for a while so it took me a while to get
all of that done. Similiarly this pull request is late because I have
been feeling absolutely miserable all week.
The issue of being able to escape a bind mount has not yet been
addressed, as the fixes are not yet mature"
