Hi, guys!
I've noticed that compiling out all the core related to
cloning and cleaning the new namespace saves us more than
a Kbyte (!) from the vmlinux.

Since there already were some questions like "do I need it
on my cellphone?" in reply to pid namespaces patches and
so on, why don't we make ALL the namespaces cloning code
under the config option to make those people happy?
Here's the proposed patch.
How about a single config variable for all namespaces?
yes good idea.
oops, that done already in the patch : CONFIG_NAMESPACES
So... Acked-by: Serge E. Hallyn and Cedric Le Goater ? :)
That is a good idea, that will avoid to have the namespaces config all
around the menuconfig too.
