Subject: [PATCH] proc: Fix parsing of mount parameters.

In commit e94591d0d90c "proc: Convert proc_mount to use mount_ns"
the parsing of mount parameters for the proc filesystem was broken.

The SB_KERNMOUNT for procfs happens via:

  start_kernel()
    rest_init()
      kernel_thread()
        _do_fork()
           copy_process()
             alloc_pid()
               pid_ns_prepare_proc()
                 kern_mount_data()
                   proc_mount()
                     mount_ns()

In mount_ns(), the kernel calls proc_fill_super() only if the superblock
has not previously been set up (i.e. the first mount reference),
regardless of SB_KERNMOUNT. Because the call to proc_parse_options() had
been moved inside here, and the SB_KERNMOUNT uses no mount options, the
option parser became a no-op.

When userspace later mounted procfs with e.g. hidepid=2, the options
would be ignored.

This change backs out a part of the original cleanup and parses the
procfs mount options at every mount call. Because the options currently
only update the pid_ns for the mount, they are applied for all mounts of
proc by that pid or childen of that pid, instantaneously. This is the
same behavior as the original code.
