Maybe, but unlike the pid namespace no one has been able to mount
fuse outside of init_user_ns so we are much less exposed. I agree we
should be careful.

Answering from a 10,000 foot perspective:

There are two cases. Requests to read/write the filesystem from outside
of s_user_ns. These run no risk of breaking userspace as this mode has
not been implemented before.

Restrictions at mount time to ensure we are not dealing with a crazy mix
of namespaces. This has a small chance of breaking someone's crazy
setup.


Dropping requests to read/write the filesystem when the requester does
not map into s_user_ns should not be a problem to enable universally. If
s_user_ns is init_user_ns everything maps so there is no restriction.



What we can do if we want to ensure maximum backwards compatibility
is if the fuse filesystem is mounted in init_user_ns but if device for
the communication channel is opened in some other user namespace we
can just force the communication channel to operate in init_user_ns.

That will be 100% backwards compatible in all cases and as far as I can
see remove the need for having different ``modes'' of operation.



This does look like the time to give all of this a hard look and see if
we can get these patches in shape to be merged.
