Subject: [RESEND PATCH v4 3/3] proc: Disable cancellation of subset=pid option

There is no way to remount procfs mountpoint with subset=pid option
without it. This is done in order not to make visible what was hidden
since some checks occur during mount.

This patch makes this limitation explicit and demonstrates the error.
