Subject: [PATCH]eventfs: Apply the gid in the mounting parameters to all files

I found that in the latest version, the nodes of 
tracefs have been changed to dynamically created.

This has caused me to encounter a problem where 
the gid I specified in the mounting parameters 
cannot apply to all files, as in the following
situation:

/data/tmp/events # mount | grep tracefs
tracefs on /data/tmp type tracefs (rw,seclabel,relatime,gid=3012)

gid 3012 = readtracefs

/data/tmp # ls -lh
total 0
-r--r-----   1 root readtracefs 0 1970-01-01 08:00 README
-r--r-----   1 root readtracefs 0 1970-01-01 08:00 available_events

ums9621_1h10:/data/tmp/events # ls -lh
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2023-12-19 00:56 alarmtimer
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2023-12-19 00:56 asoc

It will prevent certain applications from accessing
tracefs properly, I try to avoid this issue by making 
the following modifications.
