I ran into this problem when I upgraded my VM from 14.04 to 16.04.

mysql server no longer started, and after a re-install with

sudo apt purge mysql-server mysql-server-5.7 mysql-server-core-5.7
sudo apt install mysql-server

showed the errors stated

I shut them up with:
sudo nano /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld

editing the system resource access section to:

# Allow system resource access
  /sys/devices/system/cpu/ r,
  /sys/devices/system/node/ r,
  /sys/devices/system/node/** r,
  /proc/** r,

Now it starts with no more app-armor blocks
