Humm... How does one distinguish between these variants? Searching
in mountinfo for vfsmount with group ID of reported master? We can
live with that, but it looks like a subtlety that will be cheerfully
forgotten by userland code.

Will do for now, but I think that we'll need that piece of documentation
more noticable and not so easy to overlook.

Yeah. We could show propagate_from: unconditionally, but it would be
redundant most of the time.

This function belongs somewhere else, maybe namespace.c since it has
nothing to do with propagation and is generally provides a useful
service.
