Subject: [PATCH net-next RFC v1 01/27] afnetns: add CLONE_NEWAFNET flag

This patch adds a new clone flag. It will be used if a clone should also
open up a new afnetns namespace. The only restriction placed on this new
flag, is, that it cannot be used together with CLONE_NEWNET.

The previous usage of flag 0x00001000 was used for CLONE_IDLETASK until
2004. It was only allowed to be used by the kernel, thus I consider its
usage safe.
