Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tracefs: Only clobber mode/uid/gid on remount if asked

Users may have explicitly configured their tracefs permissions; we
shouldn't overwrite those just because a second mount appeared.

Only clobber if the options were provided at mount time.

Note: the previous behavior was especially surprising in the presence of
automounted /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.

  # Don't change /sys/kernel/tracing/ permissions on automount.
  umount /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
  stat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.

  # Don't change /sys/kernel/tracing/ permissions.
  mount -t tracefs none /mnt/foo

  # Change /sys/kernel/tracing/ mode and uid, but not gid.
  mount -t tracefs -o uid=bar,mode=0750 none /mnt/baz

I'm open to writing an LTP test case for this, if that seems like a good
idea.
