Yep, sorry, my mistake.  I must have confused myself when I was
looking at the code.

I'm thinking out loud here, bear with me ...

Assuming we move the netns/audit-container-ID tracking to audit_net,
and considering we already have an audit hook in copy_process() (it
calls audit_alloc()), would this be better handled by the
copy_process() hook?  This ignores naming, audit_alloc() reuse, etc.;
those can be easily fixed.  I'm just thinking of ways to limit our
impact on the core kernel and leverage our existing interaction
points.
