The posted binary is not the exact same as md5sums do not match. However, the file size is spot on. Also the same characteristics. Namely, the binary looks to be broken, but still loadable by the linux kernel:

[badfile@host badfiles]$ readelf -a ./mount

[badfile@host badfiles]$ objdump -d ./mount
objdump: ./mount: File format not recognized
[badfile@host badfiles]$ file ./mount
mount: ELF invalid class invalid byte order (SYSV)

strace as unprivileged user show one system call to 'sysinfo()' with the argument of '0'. It returns an error:

---
[badfile@host evil_mount]$ strace ./mount
execve("./mount", ["./mount"], [/* 22 vars */]) = 0
sysinfo(0) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address)

Going to look further into the binary from an analysis workstation I have setup and see if I can get any more information.
