[PATCH 06/07] This patch introduces a notification mechanism that aims at recomputing msgmni each time an ipc namespace is created or removed. The ipc namespace notifier chain already defined for memory hotplug management is used for that purpose too. Each time a new ipc namespace is allocated or an existing ipc namespace is removed, the ipcns notifier chain is notified. The callback routine for each registered ipc namespace is then activated in order to recompute msgmni for that namespace.
