[PATCH RFC v2 2/6] proc: move /proc/{self|thread-self} dentries to proc_fs_info

From: Djalal Harouni
Date: Tue Apr 25 2017 - 08:25:01 EST


This is a preparation patch that moves /proc/{self|thread-self} dentries
to be stored inside procfs fs_info struct instead of making them per pid
namespace. Since we want to support multiple procfs instances we need to
make sure that these dentries are also per-superblock instead of
per-pidns, unmounting a private procfs won't clash with other procfs
mounts.
