Pull vfs mount API updates from Christian Brauner:
- Add a generic helper to parse uid and gid mount options.
Currently we open-code the same logic in various filesystems which is
error prone, especially since the verification of uid and gid mount
options is a sensitive operation in the face of idmappings.
Add a generic helper and convert all filesystems over to it. Make
sure that filesystems that are mountable in unprivileged containers
verify that the specified uid and gid can be represented in the
owning namespace of the filesystem.
- Convert hostfs to the new mount api.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
