Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] init/do_mounts.c: create second mount for initramfs

From: Menglong Dong <dong.menglong@....com.cn>

If using container platforms such as Docker, upon initialization it
wants to use pivot_root() so that currently mounted devices do not
propagate to containers. An example of value in this is that
a USB device connected prior to the creation of a containers on the
host gets disconnected after a container is created; if the
USB device was mounted on containers, but already removed and
umounted on the host, the mount point will not go away until all
containers unmount the USB device.

Another reason for container platforms such as Docker to use pivot_root
is that upon initialization the net-namspace is mounted under
/var/run/docker/netns/ on the host by dockerd. Without pivot_root
Docker must either wait to create the network namespace prior to
the creation of containers or simply deal with leaking this to each
container.

pivot_root is supported if the rootfs is a initrd or block device, but
it's not supported if the rootfs uses an initramfs (tmpfs). This means
container platforms today must resort to using block devices if
they want to pivot_root from the rootfs. A workaround to use chroot()
is not a clean viable option given every container will have a
duplicate of every mount point on the host.

In order to support using container platforms such as Docker on
all the supported rootfs types we must extend Linux to support
pivot_root on initramfs as well. This patch does the work to do
just that.

pivot_root will unmount the mount of the rootfs from its parent mount
and mount the new root to it. However, when it comes to initramfs, it
donesn't work, because the root filesystem has not parent mount, which
makes initramfs not supported by pivot_root.

In order to make pivot_root supported on initramfs, we create a second
mount with type of rootfs before unpacking cpio, and change root to
this mount after unpacking.

While mounting the second rootfs, 'rootflags' is passed, and it means
that we can set options for the mount of rootfs in boot cmd now.
For example, the size of tmpfs can be set with 'rootflags=size=1024M'.
