[PATCH RFC v2] pidns: introduce syscall getvpid

[Konstantin Khlebnikov]

pid_t getvpid(pid_t pid, int source, int target);

This syscall converts pid from source pid-namespace into pid in target
pid-namespace. Namespaces are defined by file descriptors pointing to
namespace entries in proc (/proc/[pid]/ns/pid). If source / target is
negative then current pid namespace is used.

If pid is negative then getvpid() returns pid of parent task for -pid.

If pid is unreachable from target namespace then syscall returns zero.

Errors:
ESRCH    task not found
EBADF    closed file descriptor
EINVAL   not pid-namespace file descriptor

Examples:
getvpid(pid, ns, -1)      -> pid in our pid namespace
getvpid(pid, -1, ns)      -> pid in container
getvpid(1, ns1, ns2) > 0  -> ns1 inside ns2
getvpid(1, ns1, ns2) == 0 -> ns1 outside ns2
getvpid(1, ns, -1)        -> init task of pid-namespace
getvpid(-1, ns, -1)       -> task in parent pid-namespace
getvpid(-pid, -1, -1)     -> get ppid by pid

v2:
* use namespace-fd as second/third argument
* add -pid for getting parent pid
* move code into kernel/sys.c next to getppid
* drop ifdef CONFIG_PID_NS
* add generic syscall
