[GIT PULL 02/12 for v6.18] mount

[Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>]

Hey Linus,

/* Summary */
This contains some work around mount api handling:

* Output the warning message for mnt_too_revealing() triggered during
  fsmount() to the fscontext log. This makes it possible for the mount
  tool to output appropriate warnings on the command line. For example,
  with the newest fsopen()-based mount(8) from util-linux, the error
  messages now look like:

  # mount -t proc proc /tmp
  mount: /tmp: fsmount() failed: VFS: Mount too revealing.
         dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

* Do not consume fscontext log entries when returning -EMSGSIZE

  Userspace generally expects APIs that return -EMSGSIZE to allow for
  them to adjust their buffer size and retry the operation. However, the
  fscontext log would previously clear the message even in the -EMSGSIZE
  case.

  Given that it is very cheap for us to check whether the buffer is too
  small before we remove the message from the ring buffer, let's just do
  that instead.

* Drop an unused argument from do_remount().

/* Testing */

gcc (Debian 14.2.0-19) 14.2.0
Debian clang version 19.1.7 (3+b1)

No build failures or warnings were observed.
