After discussion with Oleg Nesterov I reimplement my patch as an additional
option for /proc. This option affects the mountpoint. It means that in one
pid namespace it possible to have both the whole traditional /proc and
/proc with only pids subset.

However, it remains an open question about overlayfs support in the /proc.

== Overview ==

Some of the container virtualization systems are mounted /proc inside
the container. This is done in most cases to operate with information
about the processes. Knowing that /proc filesystem is not fully
virtualized they are mounted on top of dangerous places empty files or
directories (for exmaple /proc/sys, /proc/kcore, /sys/firmware, etc.).

The structure of this filesystem is dynamic and any module can create a
new object which will not necessarily be virtualized. There are
proprietary modules that aren't in the mainline whose work we can not
verify.

This opens up a potential threat to the system. The developers of the
virtualization system can't predict all dangerous places in /proc by
definition.

A more effective solution would be to mount into the container only what
is necessary and ignore the rest.

Right now there is the opportunity to pass in the container any port of
the /proc filesystem using mount --bind expect the pids.

This patch allows to mount only the part of /proc related to pids
without rest objects. Since this is an option for /proc, flags applied to
/proc have an effect on this subset of filesystem.

Originally the idea was that the container will be mounted only pid sunset
and additional required files will be mounted on top using the overlayfs.
But I found out that /proc does not support overlayfs and does not allow
to mount anything on top or under it.

== TODO ==

There is still work to do:

* Show pidonly via proc_show_options.
* Add overlayfs support.
