Note: this is stripped down mount_subtree(m, ""), of course;
it might make sense to recognize that case and bypass the
create_mnt_ns/vfs_path_lookup/put_mnt_ns business in
mount_subtree() when the relative pathname is empty, replacing
it with path.mnt = mntget(mnt); path.dentry = dget(mnt->mnt_root);
in such case. That'd allow to simply call mount_subtree() here.
It would work as-is, but it's ridiculously heavy for such use
right now.

Unrelated issue, but register_filesystem() should be the last thing
module_init() of a filesystem driver does. It's a separate story,
in any case...
