Subject: [PATCH] tracefs: Only clobber mode/uid/gid on remount if asked

Users may have explicitly configured their tracefs permissions; we
shouldn't overwrite those just because a second mount appeared.

Only clobber if the options were provided at mount time.

Note: the previous behavior was especially surprising in the presence of
automounted /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.

Existing behavior:

  ## Pre-existing status: tracefs is 0755.
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## (Re)trigger the automount.
  # umount /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.
  drwx------

  ## Unexpected: the automount changed mode for other mount instances.
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/
  drwx------

New behavior (after this change):

  ## Pre-existing status: tracefs is 0755.
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## (Re)trigger the automount.
  # umount /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/.
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## Expected: the automount does not change other mount instances.
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/
  drwxr-xr-x
