[PATCH 3/5] selinux: Add support for unprivileged mounts from user namespaces

Security labels from unprivileged mounts in user namespaces must
be ignored. Force superblocks from user namespaces whose labeling
behavior is to use xattrs to use mountpoint labeling instead.
For the mountpoint label, default to converting the current task
context into a form suitable for file objects, but also allow the
policy writer to specify a different label through policy
transition rules.

Pieced together from code snippets provided by Stephen Smalley.
