You're using fdget_raw() which means you want to allow O_PATH fds but
below you're checking whether the f_ops correspond to
fscontext_fops. If it's an O_PATH f_ops will be set to empty_fops so
you'll always end up in the vfs_fsinfo branch. Is that your intention?

That means the new mount api doesn't support fsinfo() without using a
non-O_PATH fd, right? Why the fallback then?
