[RFC PATCH v3 1/2] mm: restrictedmem: Allow userspace to specify mount for memfd_restricted

[Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>]

By default, the backing shmem file for a restrictedmem fd is created
on shmem's kernel space mount.

With this patch, an optional tmpfs mount can be specified via an fd,
which will be used as the mountpoint for backing the shmem file
associated with a restrictedmem fd.

This will help restrictedmem fds inherit the properties of the
provided tmpfs mounts, for example, hugepage allocation hints, NUMA
binding hints, etc.

Permissions for the fd passed to memfd_restricted() is modeled after
the openat() syscall, since both of these allow creation of a file
upon a mount/directory.

Permission to reference the mount the fd represents is checked upon fd
creation by other syscalls (e.g. fsmount(), open(), or open_tree(),
etc) and any process that can present memfd_restricted() with a valid
fd is expected to have obtained permission to use the mount
represented by the fd. This behavior is intended to parallel that of
the openat() syscall.

memfd_restricted() will check that the tmpfs superblock is
writable, and that the mount is also writable, before attempting to
create a restrictedmem file on the mount.
