Here it is:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git unprivileged-mounts
I don't know what's next, this patchset has been in and out of -mm for as long as I can remember, but it hasn't generated much interest outside the two of us :)
I do think this is an important feature though, even if not as sexy as some other things.
Al? Is there any chance of this making it to 2.6.28?
Thanks, Miklos
