One of the big things I'm looking for in these file patches is to make
sure that we can expand some day to lots of mounts and lots of
filesystem namespaces.

This tells me that we probably need a per-process vfsroot (which is also
a shared object).  We probably need to make a note in the task structure
as well as here.
