Alexey Gladkov <legion@kernel.org> says:
When mounting procfs with the subset=pids option, all static files become
unavailable and only the dynamic part with information about pids is accessible.
In this case, there is no point in imposing additional restrictions on the
visibility of the entire filesystem for the mounter. Everything that can be
hidden in procfs is already inaccessible.
Currently, these restrictions prevent procfs from being mounted inside rootless
containers, as almost all container implementations override part of procfs to
hide certain directories. Relaxing these restrictions will allow pidfs to be
used in nested containerization.
