IIRC mount nowadays stores the full mount option string, including all
the "userspace-only" options in /run. We could either read those
directly from there in systemd, or we could make systemd make use of
libmount to get that information.

Karel, what are the details there? Would it be OK if we read the files
in /run directly to augment whatever we got from /proc/self/mountinfo?
