add_vfsmnt() is only called when the root partition is being mounted
during mount_init().  Because of this I think we can just drop the
add_vfsmnt() security call.

Anyone object to this?

And yes, the vfs went through some radical changes in 2.4.6-preX.
That's why I pushed to do the merge sooner.  The security hooks there
need to be revisited by people who care about these things :)

thanks,
