Brian Norris b8de524ce4 debugfs: Only clobber mode/uid/gid on remount if asked
Users may have explicitly configured their debugfs permissions; we
shouldn't overwrite those just because a second mount appeared.

Only clobber if the options were provided at mount time.

Existing behavior:

  ## Pre-existing status: debugfs is 0755.
  # chmod 755 /sys/kernel/debug/
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## New mount sets kernel-default permissions:
  # mount -t debugfs none /mnt/foo
  # stat -c '%A' /mnt/foo
  drwx------

  ## Unexpected: the original mount changed permissions:
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug
  drwx------

New behavior:

  ## Pre-existing status: debugfs is 0755.
  # chmod 755 /sys/kernel/debug/
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## New mount inherits existing permissions:
  # mount -t debugfs none /mnt/foo
  # stat -c '%A' /mnt/foo
  drwxr-xr-x

  ## Expected: old mount is unchanged:
  # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug
  drwxr-xr-x

Full test cases are being submitted to LTP.
