Subject: [PATCH] namespaces: fix exit race by splitting exit
Ok, could you verify that the following patch at least solves
the oopsing?
(I can't reproduce the oops with Daniel's test prog)
thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] namespaces: fix exit race by splitting exit
Fix exit race by splitting the nsproxy putting into two pieces.
First piece reduces the nsproxy refcount. If we dropped the last
reference, then it puts the mnt_ns, and returns the nsproxy as a
hint to the caller. Else it returns NULL. The second piece of
exiting task namespaces sets tsk->nsproxy to NULL, and drops the
references to other namespaces and frees the nsproxy only if an
nsproxy was passed in.
A little awkward and should probably be reworked, but hopefully
it fixes the NFS oops.
