Fix: Cherry pick upstream commit d443b9fd56e85c0e58d10b75cf5eb38e0b2c4c02. Regression Potential: This commit modifies proc_register so that callers must set the proc_fops and/or proc_iops before calling rather that proc_register assigning them based on the type of inode passed. All call sites in 3.19 match exactly with those upstream at the time the patch was merged, except for proc_create_mount_point which is the call site causing this issue. Which is to say that there is no functional change for any proc inodes except for the ones which can cause this problem, therefore there should be little potential for regression. --- Unprivileged lxc containers fail to start in some instances under vivid: lxc-start 1448306932.775 ERROR lxc_utils - utils.c:safe_mount:1686 - Operation not permitted - Failed to mount proc onto /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/proc lxc-start 1448306932.775 ERROR lxc_conf - conf.c:lxc_mount_auto_mounts:828 - Operation not permitted - error mounting proc on /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/proc flags 14 The failure is caused by the backport of 7236c85e1be51a9e25ba0f6e087a66ca89605a49 "mnt: Update fs_fully_visible to test for permanently empty directories." The backport itself is correct but some of its assumptions are not met to do a change which happened after 3.19. This causes /proc/fs/nfsd to fail the "directory is permanently empty" test, and when the nfsd fs another filesystem is mounted on that directory it causes the mount of proc in the container to fail. The fix is to bakcport d443b9fd56e85c0e58d10b75cf5eb38e0b2c4c02 "gut proc_register() a bit" as well.
