vfs: Implement a filesystem superblock creation/configuration context

Browse source 
[AV - unfuck kern_mount_data(); we want non-NULL ->mnt_ns on long-living
mounts]
[AV - reordering fs/namespace.c is badly overdue, but let's keep it
separate from that series]
[AV - drop simple_pin_fs() change]
[AV - clean vfs_kern_mount() failure exits up]

Implement a filesystem context concept to be used during superblock
creation for mount and superblock reconfiguration for remount.

The mounting procedure then becomes:

 (1) Allocate new fs_context context.

 (2) Configure the context.

 (3) Create superblock.

 (4) Query the superblock.

 (5) Create a mount for the superblock.

 (6) Destroy the context.

Rather than calling fs_type->mount(), an fs_context struct is created and
fs_type->init_fs_context() is called to set it up.  Pointers exist for the
filesystem and LSM to hang their private data off.

A set of operations has to be set by ->init_fs_context() to provide
freeing, duplication, option parsing, binary data parsing, validation,
mounting and superblock filling.

Legacy filesystems are supported by the provision of a set of legacy
fs_context operations that build up a list of mount options and then invoke
fs_type->mount() from within the fs_context ->get_tree() operation.  This
allows all filesystems to be accessed using fs_context.

It should be noted that, whilst this patch adds a lot of lines of code,
there is quite a bit of duplication with existing code that can be
eliminated should all filesystems be converted over.
