Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 05/12] kmod - teach call_usermodehelper() to use a
 namespace

From: Ian Kent <ikent@...hat.com>

The call_usermodehelper() function executes all binaries in the
global "init" root context. This doesn't allow a binary to be run
within a namespace (eg. the namespaces of a container).

The init process of the callers environment is used to setup the
namespaces in almost the same way the root init process when the
UMH_USE_NS flag is used.
