I agree. I did not mean to ignore the kthread conversions and was only
referring to the core pid namespace clone stuff.

I just realized the fix for this is in the signal patchset I was
referring to.

I notice that you have sent a patch for the kill -1.

The proc_mnt bug Linus found seems to have slipped through when
merging Pavel's and my patches.
