Unless this is documented somewhere, but I don't know. On the second thought, I think perhaps we should do the following. if sys_rt_sigqueueinfo() sends the signal to the sub-namespace, then clear always ->sid_pid. Otherwise do not touch it. This way we can't break the existing apps, and this simplifies send_signal() which should take "is_it_from_ancestor_ns" into account. What do you think?
