With secureboot enabled, we don't even trust root. And when kexec
is launched
it might happen that root has already rigged /proc and /sys which kexec
reads to get important data.
So create a private mount namespace which is not visible to root, unmount
old /proc and /sys and remount these to get to actual data kernel exported.
Hello Vivek
kexec will also use /sys/kernel/debug/boot_params, I want to copy efi_info from
there for efi runtime support. So could you remount debugfs as well?
