Transferring the Linux S&M options when crossing into a submount.

Frankly, the set of mount-related hooks is atrocious - way too much
duplication between them (sb_kern_mount vs. sb_set_mnt_opts vs.
sb_parse_opts_str vs. sb_clone_mnt_opts) and that, actually, is the
worst part of safely untangling the mount-API series ;-/

And then there's sb_mount, with 3 instances and arseloads of
races in 2 out of 3.  Consider e.g. this:
        if (need_dev) {
                /* Get mount point or device file. */
                if (!dev_name || kern_path(dev_name, LOOKUP_FOLLOW, &path)) {
                        error = -ENOENT;
                        goto out;
                }
                obj.path1 = path;
                requested_dev_name = tomoyo_realpath_from_path(&path);
                if (!requested_dev_name) {
                        error = -ENOENT;
                        goto out;
                }
in tomoyo.  OK, so we do a pathname resolution of dev_name (including
the source in mount --bind case).  Then we apply checks to it...
and proceed to...
        if (obj.path1.dentry)
                path_put(&obj.path1);
... discard the result of lookup.  Then the caller proceeds to do
the work, including (at various locations, depending upon the
mount(2) flags, fs type, etc.) looking dev_name up.  Could you spell TOCTOU?

Or, for example, this:
        if (!dev_name || !*dev_name)
                return -EINVAL;

        flags &= MS_REC | MS_BIND;

        error = kern_path(dev_name, LOOKUP_FOLLOW|LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT, &old_path);
        if (error)
                return error;

        get_buffers(buffer, old_buffer);
        error = fn_for_each_confined(label, profile,
                        match_mnt(profile, path, buffer, &old_path, old_buffer,
                                  NULL, flags, NULL, false));
        put_buffers(buffer, old_buffer);
        path_put(&old_path);
Same story, same TOCTOU race, this time in apparmour...
