[PATCH 3.12 117/142] mnt: Fix fs_fully_visible to verify the root directory is visible

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Sat May 16 2015 - 04:44:21 EST


From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 7e96c1b0e0f495c5a7450dc4aa7c9a24ba4305bd upstream.

This fixes a dumb bug in fs_fully_visible that allows proc or sys to
be mounted if there is a bind mount of part of /proc/ or /sys/ visible.
