Subject: [RFC 2/3] procfs: add hidepid= and gid= mount options

This patch adds support of mount options to restrict access to
/proc/PID/ directories.  The default backward-compatible "relaxed"
behaviour is left untouched.

The first mount option is called "hidepid" and its value defines how much
info about processes we want to be available for non-owners:

hidepid=0 (default) means the old behavior - anybody may read all
world-readable /proc/PID/* files.

hidepid=1 means users may not access any /proc/<pid>/ directories, but
their own.  Sensitive files like cmdline, sched*, status are now
protected against other users.  As permission checking done in
proc_pid_permission() and files' permissions are left untouched,
programs expecting specific files' modes are not confused.

hidepid=2 means hidepid=1 plus all /proc/PID/ will be invisible to
other users.  It doesn't mean that it hides whether a process
exists (it can be learned by other means, e.g. by kill -0 $PID), but
it hides process' euid and egid.  It compicates intruder's task of
gathering info about running processes, whether some daemon runs with
elevated privileges, whether another user runs some sensitive program,
whether other users run any program at all, etc.

gid=XXX defines a group that will be able to gather all processes' info
(as in hidepid=0 mode).  This group should be used instead of putting
nonroot user in sudoers file or something.  However, untrusted users
(like daemons, etc.) which are not supposed to monitor the tasks in the
whole system should not be added to the group.


hidepid=1 or higher is designed to restrict access to procfs files, which
might reveal some sensitive private information like precise keystrokes
timings:

http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/11/05/3

hidepid=1/2 doesn't break monitoring userspace tools.  ps, top, pgrep, and
conky gracefully handle EPERM/ENOENT and behave as if the current user is
the only user running processes.  pstree shows the process subtree which
contains "pstree" process.
