[PATCH 0/6 resend] statfs: handle mount propagation

[Christian Brauner]

Hey,

This is the second resend of this patchset. I'm not sure whether it has
simply been overlooked but the number of people get_maintainer.pl was
rather small and seemed a little random so I added Linus and Christoph,
two people I know that do look at VFS stuff at least from time to time,
although they weren't listed by get_maintainer.pl. I hope that's ok.

This little series
- unifies the definition of constants in statfs.h and fs.h
  *Note, that Andreas has expressed doubts whether this unification is
  useful. Please see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/13/571 . I still think
  it is but I'm happy to drop these two patches if others agree.*
- extends statfs to handle mount propagation. This will let userspace
  easily query a given mountpoint for MS_UNBINDABLE, MS_SHARED,
  MS_PRIVATE and MS_SLAVE without always having to do costly parsing of
  /proc/<pid>/mountinfo.
  To this end the flags:
  - ST_UNBINDABLE
  - ST_SHARED
  - ST_PRIVATE
  - ST_SLAVE
  are added. They have the same value as their MS_* counterparts.

Thanks!
Christian
