fs_context flavour for submounts
This is an eventual replacement for vfs_submount() uses. Unlike the "mount" and "remount" cases, the users of that thing are not in VFS - they are buried in various ->d_automount() instances and rather than converting them all at once we introduce the (thankfully small and simple) infrastructure here and deal with the prospective users in afs, nfs, etc. parts of the series. Here we just introduce a new constructor (fs_context_for_submount()) along with the corresponding enum constant to be put into fc->purpose for those. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
