I think an error return is preferable to a panic, during the mount
operation.  During normal operation, it seems to me that the right
thing is to panic if the mount was done by root and to do the
forcible-unmount thing if non-root.  (This arguably should be a mount
option which is forced on for non-root mounts, so that root mounts can
get the force-unmount semantics if desired.)
