[PATCH 3/4] use uniform permission checks for all mount propagation changes

[Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>]

do_change_type() and do_set_group() are operating on different
aspects of the same thing - propagation graph.  The latter
asks for mounts involved to be mounted in namespace(s) the caller
has CAP_SYS_ADMIN for.  The former is a mess - originally it
didn't even check that mount *is* mounted.  That got fixed,
but the resulting check turns out to be too strict for userland -
in effect, we check that mount is in our namespace, having already
checked that we have CAP_SYS_ADMIN there.

What we really need (in both cases) is
	* we only touch mounts that are mounted.  Hard requirement,
data corruption if that's get violated.
	* we don't allow to mess with a namespace unless you already
have enough permissions to do so (i.e. CAP_SYS_ADMIN in its userns).

That's an equivalent of what do_set_group() does; let's extract that
into a helper (may_change_propagation()) and use it in both
do_set_group() and do_change_type().

Fixes: 12f147ddd6de "do_change_type(): refuse to operate on unmounted/not ours mounts"
