Hm,I'll try to monitor to see when this gets merged. Though the function 
proposed there uses a hard-coded init_user_ns, which may not work for 
everyone.

I did that now:


+static inline
+struct user_namespace *ima_user_ns_from_file(struct file *filp)
+{
+       return file_sb_user_ns(filp);
+}
+


+static inline struct user_namespace *file_sb_user_ns(struct file *file)
+{
+       return i_user_ns(file_inode(file));
+}
+
