[PATCH -mm 2/2] user namespace : add unshare

From: Cedric Le Goater
Date: Fri Jun 08 2007 - 11:14:43 EST


From: Serge E. Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changelog: Fix !CONFIG_USER_NS clone with CLONE_NEWUSER so it returns -EINVAL
rather than 0, so that userspace knows they didn't get a new user
namespace.
