That is quite bad. Just have the same signature. Which namespace you belong to can *always* be derived from the calling process, you should never need to specify that in any interface. It is of course fine to do that in functions internal to the kernel, but not this.

You should rethink the whole ns_quota thing. Some of it I believe will have to stay, I doubt we'll be able to be completely transparent. But the core of your changes have to be making sure a hierarchical walk over the valid quotas work well, finding out what are those valid quotas, etc.

The interface should be kept as unchanged as possible, and this can be achieved by things like automatic discover of the current namespace, and pre-operational container setup for the relevant files.
