It's Sunday morning and perhaps my mind is not yet in a "hey, let's
look at VFS kernel code!" mindset, but I'm not convinced the problem
is the 'param->string = NULL' assignment in the LSM hooks.  In both
the case of SELinux and Smack that code ends up returning either a 0
(Smack) or a 1 (SELinux) - that's a little odd in it's own way, but I
don't believe it is relevant here - either way these return values are
not equal to -ENOPARAM so we should end up returning early from
vfs_parse_fs_param before it calls down into legacy_parse_param():

Taken from https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/fs/fs_context.c#L109 :

  ret = security_fs_context_parse_param(fc, param);
  if (ret != -ENOPARAM)
    /* Param belongs to the LSM or is disallowed by the LSM; so
     * don't pass to the FS.
     */
    return ret;

  if (fc->ops->parse_param) {
    ret = fc->ops->parse_param(fc, param);
    if (ret != -ENOPARAM)
      return ret;
  }
