Just from a containers point of view, I think this is something we'll

Instead of having a global tracking, perhaps we could have a per-user
limit tracked in 'struct user'.  The plans are to ensure that two
containers' users dave each have a different 'struct user', so that
seems to be a decent place to track it.

Also, is a read-only sysctl really the best way to get the number of
user mounts back out of the kernel?  What would you use it for?

Do you need any special logic for setting 'max_user_mounts' in the case
where it gets set _below_ 'nr_user_mounts'?

 Instead of having a global tracking, perhaps we could have a per-user
 limit tracked in 'struct user'.  The plans are to ensure that two
 containers' users dave each have a different 'struct user', so that
 seems to be a decent place to track it.

At one time there was a per-user accounting patch, but it was dropped,
because it was deemed an unnecessary additional compexity.

max_user_mounts is analogue to files_stat.max_files (which is a sysctl
tunable also), and it's purpose is really to make sure that a user is
not able to create an insane number of mounts, and not to acurately
limit normal usage.

So I'm not sure a per-container or per-user count is really needed.

 Also, is a read-only sysctl really the best way to get the number of
 user mounts back out of the kernel?  What would you use it for?

Just to check, why I got that (EPERM or whatever) error for the mount
command.

 Do you need any special logic for setting 'max_user_mounts' in the case
 where it gets set _below_ 'nr_user_mounts'?

No, I don't think such corner cases really matter in this case.

Yeah, maybe some of the patches should be folded together.  If a
resubmit is necessary I'll look into that.
