Stefan Hajnoczi ebf101955c virtiofsd: avoid /proc/self/fd tempdir
In order to prevent /proc/self/fd escapes a temporary directory is
created where /proc/self/fd is bind-mounted. This doesn't work on
read-only file systems.

Avoid the temporary directory by bind-mounting /proc/self/fd over /proc.
This does not affect other processes since we remounted / with MS_REC |
MS_SLAVE. /proc must exist and virtiofsd does not use it so it's safe to
do this.

Path traversal can be tested with the following function:

  static void test_proc_fd_escape(struct lo_data *lo)
  {
      int fd;
      int level = 0;
      ino_t last_ino = 0;

      fd = lo->proc_self_fd;
      for (;;) {
          struct stat st;

          if (fstat(fd, &st) != 0) {
              perror("fstat");
              return;
          }
          if (last_ino && st.st_ino == last_ino) {
              fprintf(stderr, "inode number unchanged, stopping\n");
              return;
          }
          last_ino = st.st_ino;

          fprintf(stderr, "Level %d dev %lu ino %lu\n", level,
                  (unsigned long)st.st_dev,
                  (unsigned long)last_ino);
          fd = openat(fd, "..", O_PATH | O_DIRECTORY | O_NOFOLLOW);
          level++;
      }
  }

Before and after this patch only Level 0 is displayed. Without
/proc/self/fd bind-mount protection it is possible to traverse parent
directories.
