Subject: [PATCH v2] Add a "nosymlinks" mount option.
For mounts that have the new "nosymlinks" option, don't follow
symlinks when resolving paths. The new option is similar in spirit to
the existing "nodev", "noexec", and "nosuid" options.
Note that symlinks may still be created on mounts where the
"nosymlinks" option is present. readlink() remains functional, so user
space code that is aware of symlinks can still choose to follow them
explicitly.
Setting the "nosymlinks" mount option helps prevent privileged writers
from modifying files unintentionally in case there is an unexpected
link along the accessed path. The "nosymlinks" option is thus useful
as a defensive measure for systems that need to deal with untrusted
file systems in privileged contexts.
