Moving the event counter into the dynamically allocated 'struc seq_file'
allows poll() support without the need to allocate its own tracking
structure.All current users are switched over to use the new counter.

This reverts commit e9496ff46a20a8592fdc7bdaaf41b45eb808d310. Quoth Al:
"it's dependent on a lot of other stuff not currently in mainline
and badly broken with current fs/namespace.c. Sorry, badly
out-of-order cherry-pick from old queue.PS: there's a large pending series reworking the refcounting and
lifetime rules for vfsmounts that will, among other things, allow to
rip a subtree away _without_ dissolving connections in it, to be
garbage-collected when all active references are gone. It's
considerably saner wrt "is the subtree busy" logics, but it's nowhere
near being ready for merge at the moment; this changeset is one of the
things becoming possible with that sucker, but it certainly shouldn't
have been picked during this cycle. My apologies..."Noticed-by: Eric Paris

Fix various silly problems wrt mnt_namespace.h:
- exit_mnt_ns() isn't used, remove it
- done that, sched.h and nsproxy.h inclusions aren't needed
- mount.h inclusion was need for vfsmount_lock, but no longer
- remove mnt_namespace.h inclusion from files which don't use anything
from mnt_namespace.hSigned-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan

The purpose of this patch is to improve the remote mount path lookup
support for distributed filesystems such as the NFSv4 client.When given a mount command of the form "mount server:/foo/bar /mnt", the
NFSv4 client is required to look up the filehandle for "server:/", and
then look up each component of the remote mount path "foo/bar" in order
to find the directory that is actually going to be mounted on /mnt.
Following that remote mount path may involve following symlinks,
crossing server-side mount points and even following referrals to
filesystem volumes on other servers.Since the standard VFS path lookup code already supports walking paths
that contain all these features (using in-kernel automounts for
following referrals) we would like to be able to reuse that rather than
duplicate the full path traversal functionality in the NFSv4 client code.This patch therefore defines a VFS helper function create_mnt_ns(), that
sets up a temporary filesystem namespace and attaches a root filesystem to
it. It exports the create_mnt_ns() and put_mnt_ns() function for use by
filesystem modules.Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

Don't pull it in sched.h; very few files actually need it and those
can include directly. sched.h itself only needs forward declaration
of struct fs_struct;Signed-off-by: Al Viro

[mszeredi@suse.cz] rewrite and split big patch into managable chunks
/proc/mounts in its current form lacks important information:
- propagation state
- root of mount for bind mounts
- the st_dev value used within the filesystem
- identifier for each mount and it's parentIt also suffers from the following problems:
- not easily extendable
- ambiguity of mountpoints within a chrooted environment
- doesn't distinguish between filesystem dependent and independent options
- doesn't distinguish between per mount and per super block optionsThis patch introduces /proc//mountinfo which attempts to address
all these deficiencies.Code shared between /proc//mounts and /proc//mountinfo is
extracted into separate functions.Thanks to Al Viro for the help in getting the design right.

Allow /proc//mountinfo to use the root of to calculate
mountpoints.- move definition of 'struct proc_mounts' to
- add the process's namespace and root to this structure
- pass a pointer to 'struct proc_mounts' into seq_operationsIn addition the following cleanups are made:
- use a common open function for /proc//{mounts,mountstat}
- surround namespace.c part of these proc files with #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS
- make the seq_operations structures constSigned-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

While working on unshare support for the network namespace I noticed we
were putting clone flags in an int. Which is weird because the syscall
uses unsigned long and we at least need an unsigned to properly hold all of
the unshare flags.So to make the code consistent, this patch updates the code to use
unsigned long instead of int for the clone flags in those places
where we get it wrong today.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

sys_clone() and sys_unshare() both makes copies of nsproxy and its associated
namespaces. But they have different code paths.This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone
handling (as much as possible). Posted on container list earlier for
feedback.- Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to
caller to attach it to right process.- Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace
instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy.- Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines.
- Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON()
just incase.- Get rid of all individual unshare_*_ns() routines and make use of
copy_*_ns() instead.[akpm@osdl.org: cleanups, warning fix]
