vfs: Generalize filesystem nodev handling.
Introduce a function may_open_dev that tests MNT_NODEV and a new superblock flab SB_I_NODEV. Use this new function in all of the places where MNT_NODEV was previously tested. Add the new SB_I_NODEV s_iflag to proc, sysfs, and mqueuefs as those filesystems should never support device nodes, and a simple superblock flags makes that very hard to get wrong. With SB_I_NODEV set if any device nodes somehow manage to show up on on a filesystem those device nodes will be unopenable. Acked-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
