For squashfs all needed functionality for idmapped mounts is already
implemented by the generic handlers in the VFS. Thus, it is sufficient
to just enable the corresponding FS_ALLOW_IDMAP flag to support
idmapped mounts.
We use this for unprivileged (user namespaced) containers based on
squashfs images as rootfs in GyroidOS.
A simple test using the mount-idmapped tool executed as user with
uid=1000 looks as follows:
$ mount | tail -n2
fs.img on /mnt/test type squashfs (ro,relatime,errors=continue)
fs.img on /mnt/mapped type squashfs (ro,relatime,idmapped,errors=continue)
