The passed struct file_system_type describes your filesystem. When a
request is made to mount a filesystem onto a directory in your namespace,
the VFS will call the appropriate mount() method for the specific
-filesystem. New vfsmount refering to the tree returned by ->mount()
+filesystem. New vfsmount referring to the tree returned by ->mount()
will be attached to the mountpoint, so that when pathname resolution
reaches the mountpoint it will jump into the root of that vfsmount.

permission: called by the VFS to check for access rights on a POSIX-like
filesystem.

+ May be called in rcu-walk mode (mask & MAY_NOT_BLOCK). If in rcu-walk
mode, the filesystem must check the permission without blocking or
storing to the inode.
