This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 229-4ubuntu21.17

---------------
systemd (229-4ubuntu21.17) xenial; urgency=medium

  [ Victor Tapia ]
  * d/p/stop-mount-error-propagation.patch:
    keep mount errors local to the failing mount point instead of blocking
    the processing of all mounts (LP: #1755863)

  [ Eric Desrochers ]
  * d/p/fix-egde-case-when-processing-proc-self-mountinfo.patch:
    Mounting any file system to a mount point in a directory
    that is bind mounted to itself will create an inactive
    mount unit. (LP: #1795764)

Title:
  systemd: core: Fix edge case when processing /proc/self/mountinfo

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  kubernetes loaded inactive dead transient mount points grows
  https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/57345

  [Test Case]

  # cd /tmp
  # mkdir -p bind-test/abc
  # mount --bind bind-test bind-test
  # mount -t tmpfs tmpfs bind-test/abc
  # umount bind-test/abc
  # systemctl list-units --all | grep bind-test
  tmp-bind\x2dtest-abc.mount loaded inactive dead /tmp/bind-test/abc
  tmp-bind\x2dtest.mount loaded active mounted /tmp/bind-test

  Expected outcome (w/ the fix) :

  # cd /tmp
  # mkdir -p bind-test/abc
  # mount --bind bind-test bind-test
  # mount -t tmpfs tmpfs bind-test/abc
  # umount bind-test/abc
  # systemctl list-units --all | grep bind-test
  tmp-bind\x2dtest.mount loaded active mounted /tmp/bind-test

  [Regression Potential]

  This is a adapted version of 2 upstream fixes as the original upstream
  commit has been made on top on 2 functions mount_setup_new_unit() &
  mount_setup_existing_unit() that not yet exist systemd 229. It is
  easily adaptable because the current function mount_setup_unit() is
  dealing with both of at the moment instead of being individually
  separate in two distinct function.

  It is an adaptation of commits :
  [65d36b495] core: Fix edge case when processing /proc/self/mountinfo
  [03b8cfede] core: make sure to init mount params before calling mount_is_extrinsic()

  This patch changes mount_setup_unit() to prevent the just_mounted
  mount setup flag from being overwritten if it is set to true. This
  will allow all mount units created from /proc/self/mountinfo entries
  to be initialised properly.

  Additionally, the patch got the blessing of 'xnox' who looked at it
  and mention it looks fine to him.

  [Pending SRU]

  Note: No autopkgtests has been reported since systemd (21.5) ...
  between 21.5 and now (21.11) everything released has been about
  security fixes :

  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.11) xenial; urgency=medium ==> Current SRU
  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.10) xenial-security; urgency=medium
  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.9) xenial-security; urgency=medium
  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.8) xenial-security; urgency=medium
  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.6) xenial-security; urgency=medium
  systemd (229-4ubuntu21.5) xenial; urgency=medium ==> Previous SRU

  
  Note: I don't know the level of adoption of Netplan in Xenial, but I suspect it is low as Netplan replaced ifupdown as the default configuration utility starting with Ubuntu 17.10 Artful only AFAIK.

  
  * Regression in autopkgtest for nplan (s390x): test log
  https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-xenial/xenial/s390x/n/nplan/20181023_132448_031b9@/log.gz

  Error:
  modprobe: FATAL: Module cfg80211 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.4.0-138-generic

  Justification:
  This above seems to be a recurrent failure since a couple of release already. This wasn't introduce by this particular SRU.

  I don't think having wifi module is relevant in s390x anyway, so most
  likely the module is not there on purpose for kernel w/ s390x
  architecture.

  * Regression in autopkgtest for nplan (amd64): test log
  https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac/autopkgtest-xenial/xenial/amd64/n/nplan/20181217_010129_e07e2@/log.gz

  Error: (Ran on autopkgtest Ubuntu infra)
  test_bond_mode_balance_rr_pps (__main__.TestNetworkManager) ... Error: Could not create NMClient object: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for a well-known name without an owner and proxy was constructed with the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START flag.FAIL

  test_bridge_priority (__main__.TestNetworkManager) ... Error: Could
  not create NMClient object: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for a well-

  NMClient object: Cannot invoke method; proxy is for a well-known name

  G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START flag.FAIL

  Justification:

  The test are "passing" if ran manually in my own HW :

  autopkgtest [15:29:15]: host <MY_HOSTNAME>; command line: /usr/bin/autopkgtest nplan -U --apt-pocket=proposed --log-file /tmp/adt-proposed.out --- qemu /var/lib/libvirt/images/autopkgtest-xenial-amd64.img
  .....
  Setting up systemd (229-4ubuntu21.11) ...
  Setting up nplan (0.32~16.04.6) ...
  Setting up network-manager (1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.3) ...
  ....
  test_dhcp6 (__main__.TestNetworkManager) ... ok
  test_bridge_priority (__main__.TestNetworkManager) ... ok
  test_bond_mode_balance_rr_pps (__main__.TestNetworkManager) ... ok

  I *think* that these test may eventually works, but is it really worth
  it to retry them until success if it works fine outside the Ubuntu
  infra w/ the same proposed packages ? (See attachment:
  autopkgtest_result.txt for the whole ADT log)

  * Regression in autopkgtest for nplan (armhf): test log

  Justification:
  It is a recurrent failure since "systemd/229-4ubuntu21.3".
  Nothing to do with the current SRU "systemd/229-4ubuntu21.11".
  Since then quite a few SRU has been approved so I'm not too worry here.

  systemd v237 has this fix, but we'd like to have it fixed in 16.04.

  It only affect systemd for Xenial, later release already has the fix:

  $ git describe --contains 65d36b495
  v237~140

  [Original Description]

  From the PR:
  Currently, if there are two /proc/self/mountinfo entries with the same
  mount point path, the mount setup flags computed for the second of
  these two entries will overwrite the mount setup flags computed for
  the first of these two entries. This is the root cause of issue #7798.
  This patch changes mount_setup_existing_unit to prevent the
  just_mounted mount setup flag from being overwritten if it is set to
  true. This will allow all mount units created from /proc/self/mountinfo
  entries to be initialized properly.
