Subject: [PATCH] Security: Handle hidepid option correctly

From: Cheng Yang <chengyang@...omi.com>

The proc_parse_options() call from proc_mount() runs only once at boot
time.  So on any later mount attempt, any mount options are ignored
because ->s_root is already initialized.
As a consequence, "mount -o <options>" will ignore the options.  The
only way to change mount options is "mount -o remount,<options>".
To fix this, parse the mount options unconditionally.
