Subject: [PATCH v1 0/7] pid: Introduce helper task_is_in_root_ns()

The kernel uses open code to check if a process is in root PID namespace
or not in several places.

Suggested by Suzuki, this patch set is to create a helper function
task_is_in_root_ns() so we can use it replace open code.

To test this patch set, I built Arm64 kernel with enabling all relevant
modules, and verified the kernel with CoreSight module on Arm64 Juno
board.


Leo Yan (7):
  pid: Introduce helper task_is_in_root_ns()
  coresight: etm3x: Use task_is_in_root_ns() to check PID namespace
  coresight: etm4x: Use task_is_in_root_ns() to check PID namespace
  connector/cn_proc: Use task_is_in_root_ns() to check PID namespace
  coda: Use task_is_in_root_ns()
  audit: Use task_is_in_root_ns()
  taskstats: Use task_is_in_root_ns()
