tmpfs support 'size', 'nr_blocks' and 'nr_inodes' mount options. mount or
remount them to zero means unlimited. 'size' and 'br_blocks' can remount
from limited to unlimited, while 'nr_inodes' can't.
The problem is fixed since upstream commit 0b5071dd323d ("
shmem_parse_options(): use a separate structure to keep the results"). But
in order to backport it, the amount of related patches need to backport is
huge.
So, I made some local changes to fix the problem.
