Imho, this code is really ugly. Please see the patches. Since I have a patchset that makes it possible to unshare the pid namespace about ready to send I figure we should combine the two efforts. This patchset is a prerequisite to my patches for giving namespaces file descriptors and allowing you to join and existing namespace. When I look over my old notes it appears there Daniel managed to hit this proc_mnt reference counting in that context. So that is definitely interesting. Oleg take a look I think I have combined the best of our two patchsets.
