From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> commit e8b20a474cf2c42698d1942f939ff2128819f151 upstream. The command mount -o remount -o unknownoption /mnt/fuse succeeds on kernel versions prior to v5.4 and fails on kernel version at or after. This is because fuse_parse_param() rejects any unrecognised options in case of FS_CONTEXT_FOR_RECONFIGURE, just as for FS_CONTEXT_FOR_MOUNT. This causes a regression in case the fuse filesystem is in fstab, since remount sends all options found there to the kernel; even ones that are meant for the initial mount and are consumed by the userspace fuse server. Fix this by ignoring mount options, just as fuse_remount_fs() did prior to the conversion to the new API.
