Subject: [PATCH 3.17 52/73] userns: Rename id_map_mutex to userns_state_mutex

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>

commit f0d62aec931e4ae3333c797d346dc4f188f454ba upstream.

Generalize id_map_mutex so it can be used for more state of a user namespace.
