[PATCH 5.4 02/15] devtmpfs regression fix: reconfigure on each mount

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

commit a6097180d884ddab769fb25588ea8598589c218c upstream.

Prior to Linux v5.4 devtmpfs used mount_single() which treats the given
mount options as "remount" options, so it updates the configuration of
the single super_block on each mount.

Since that was changed, the mount options used for devtmpfs are ignored.
This is a regression which affect systemd - which mounts devtmpfs with
"-o mode=755,size=4m,nr_inodes=1m".

This patch restores the "remount" effect by calling reconfigure_single()

Fixes: d401727ea0d7 ("devtmpfs: don't mix {ramfs,shmem}_fill_super() with mount_single()")
