Subject[PATCH v5 2/6] fs: Add a MAY_EXECMOUNT flag to infer the noexec mount property
Date
This new MAY_EXECMOUNT flag enables to check if the underlying mount
point of an inode is marked as executable. This is useful to implement
a security policy taking advantage of the noexec mount option.

This flag is set according to path_noexec(), which checks if a mount
point is mounted with MNT_NOEXEC or if the underlying superblock is
SB_I_NOEXEC.
