From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 7e96c1b0e0f495c5a7450dc4aa7c9a24ba4305bd ]

This fixes a dumb bug in fs_fully_visible that allows proc or sys to
be mounted if there is a bind mount of part of /proc/ or /sys/ visible.
