The "PAGE_SIZE - 2 - size" calculation in legacy_parse_param() is an
unsigned type so a large value of "size" results in a high positive
value instead of a negative value as expected.  Fix this by getting rid
of the subtraction.

<title>memcg: charge fs_context and legacy_fs_context</title>

<id>bb902cb47cf93b33cd92b3b7a4019330a03ef57f</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds accounting flags to fs_context and legacy_fs_context
allocation sites so that kernel could correctly charge these objects.

We have written a PoC to demonstrate the effect of the missing-charging
bugs.  The PoC takes around 1,200MB unaccounted memory, while it is
charged for only 362MB memory usage.  We evaluate the PoC on QEMU x86_64
v5.2.90 + Linux kernel v5.10.19 + Debian buster.  All the limitations
including ulimits and sysctl variables are set as default.  Specifically,
the hard NOFILE limit and nr_open in sysctl are both 1,048,576.

Add a simple helper that filesystems can use in their parameter parser
to parse the "source" parameter. A few places open-coded this function
and that already caused a bug in the cgroup v1 parser that we fixed.
Let's make it harder to get this wrong by introducing a helper which
performs all necessary checks.

Parsing "silent" and clearing SB_SILENT makes zero sense.

Parsing "silent" and setting SB_SILENT would make a bit more sense, but
apparently nobody cares.

Unlike the others, this is _not_ a standard option accepted by mount(8).

In fact SB_POSIXACL is an internal flag, and accepting MS_POSIXACL on the
mount(2) interface is possibly a bug.

The only filesystem that apparently wants to handle the "posixacl" option
is 9p, but it has special handling of that option besides setting
SB_POSIXACL.

Makes little sense to keep this blacklist synced with what mount(8) parses
and what it doesn't.  E.g. it has various forms of "*atime" options, but
not "atime"...
