I'm reluctant to do that at this time since the original proposal was
precisely that of export set_fs_root() and using it around the AF_LOCAL
socket bind. That proposal was NACKed by Al Viro.

If Al is OK with the idea of us creating a private version of
set_fs_root, then I'd like to see an official Acked-by: that we can
append to this commit.
