/**
 * Bootstrap mount namespace.
 *
 * This is a chunk of tricky code that lets us have full control over the
 * layout and direction of propagation of mount events. The documentation below
 * assumes knowledge of the 'sharedsubtree.txt' document from the kernel source
 * tree.
 *
 * As a reminder two definitions are quoted below:
 *
 *  A 'propagation event' is defined as event generated on a vfsmount
 *  that leads to mount or unmount actions in other vfsmounts.
 *
 *  A 'peer group' is defined as a group of vfsmounts that propagate
 *  events to each other.
 *
 * (end of quote).
 *
 * The main idea is to setup a mount namespace that has a root filesystem with
 * vfsmounts and peer groups that, depending on the location, either isolate
 * or share with the rest of the system.
 *
 * The vast majority of the filesystem is shared in one direction. Events from
 * the outside (from the main mount namespace) propagate inside (to namespaces
 * of particular snaps) so things like new snap revisions, mounted drives, etc,
 * just show up as expected but even if a snap is exploited or malicious in
 * nature it cannot affect anything in another namespace where it might cause
 * security or stability issues.
 *
 * Selected directories (today just /media) can be shared in both directions.
 * This allows snaps with sufficient privileges to either create, through the
 * mount system call, additional mount points that are visible by the rest of
 * the system (both the main mount namespace and namespaces of individual
 * snaps) or remove them, through the unmount system call.
