When NFS superblocks are created by automounting, their LSM parameters aren't set in the fs_context struct prior to sget_fc() being called, leading to failure to match existing superblocks. Fix this by adding a new LSM hook to load fc->security for submount creation when alloc_fs_context() is creating the fs_context for it. However, this uncovers a further bug: nfs_get_root() initialises the superblock security manually by calling security_sb_set_mnt_opts() or security_sb_clone_mnt_opts() - but then vfs_get_tree() calls security_sb_set_mnt_opts(), which can lead to SELinux, at least, complaining. Fix that by adding a flag to the fs_context that suppresses the security_sb_set_mnt_opts() call in vfs_get_tree(). This can be set by NFS when it sets the LSM context on the new superblock. The first bug leads to messages like the following appearing in dmesg: NFS: Cache volume key already in use (nfs,4.2,2,108,106a8c0,1,,,,100000,100000,2ee,3a98,1d4c,3a98,1) Changes ======= ver #5) - Removed unused variable. - Only allocate smack_mnt_opts if we're dealing with a submount. ver #4) - When doing a FOR_SUBMOUNT mount, don't set the root label in SELinux or Smack. ver #3) - Made LSM parameter extraction dependent on fc->purpose == FS_CONTEXT_FOR_SUBMOUNT. Shouldn't happen on FOR_RECONFIGURE. ver #2) - Added Smack support - Made LSM parameter extraction dependent on reference != NULL.

I'm wondering if we are better off leaving it up to the LSM by passing the fs_context in the security_sb_set_mnt_opts() hook; those that want to effectively skip this call due to a submount setup already done in security_fs_context_init() can check the fs_context::purpose value in the security_sb_set_mnt_opts() hook.
Actually, we could probably also create a LSM specific flag in fs_context::security to indicate that the setup has already been done. That's probably a little safer than relying on fs_context::purpose in the security_sb_set_mnt_opts() hook.
Thoughts?
