+There's a separate directory /proc/sys/fs/types/<type>/ for each

+usermount_safe
+--------------
+
+Setting this to non-zero will allow filesystems of this type to be
+mounted by unprivileged users (note, that there are other
+prerequisites as well).
+
+Care should be taken when enabling this, since most
+filesystems haven't been designed with unprivileged mounting
+in mind.
