Subject: mnt: Fix fs_fully_visible to verify the root directory is visible

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

commit 7e96c1b0e0f495c5a7450dc4aa7c9a24ba4305bd upstream.

This fixes a dumb bug in fs_fully_visible that allows proc or sys to
be mounted if there is a bind mount of part of /proc/ or /sys/ visible.
