Without this commit, the root OpenRC service remounts all mounted filesystems (except /) with the options defined in /etc/fstab via fstabinfo. It is presently unclear to me why / was excluded from remounting in 497ff7ee41168d863971efb52e2ca6b42f765832 and unfortunately neither the commit nor the associated Bugzilla issue [1] provides further information on this. At Alpine, our initramfs does currently not remount / with all options defined in /etc/fstab [2]. As part of the discussion on the Alpine side of things we wondered why OpenRC does not remount / since this would be the easier solution for us. For this reason, this commit changes the behavior of the OpenRC root services accordingly to also remount / with the options defined in /etc/fstab.

OpenRC README
OpenRC is a dependency-based init system that works with the
system-provided init program, normally /sbin/init
.
building and installing
OpenRC uses the meson build system, so use the usual methods for this build system to build and install.
Notes
We don't support building a static OpenRC with PAM.
PKG_PREFIX
should be set to where packages install to by default.
LOCAL_PREFIX
should be set to where user maintained packages are.
Only set LOCAL_PREFIX
if different from PKG_PREFIX
.
ROOTPREFIX
should be set when the root path is different from '/'.
rc
and rc.shutdown
are the hooks from the BSD init into OpenRC.
devd.conf
is modified from FreeBSD to call /etc/rc.devd
which is a
generic hook into OpenRC.
inittab
is the same, but for SysVInit as used by most Linux distributions.
This can be found in the support folder.
Obviously, if you're installing this onto a system that does not use OpenRC by default then you may wish to backup the above listed files, remove them and then install so that the OS hooks into OpenRC.
