I started testing then realized why you ask :), I now have a mounted image
which I can't get rid off, ah well.

a) If you can find a way to get a file descriptor to the mounted image then
it'll work as-is.
b) If you can find a way to point to the mounted image's dentry then I can
possibly tweak it to add a link to that dentry.

So far I couldn't find a way to achieve (a), I'm trying to look at (b) for a
few minutes now.
