I don't currently see any problems.

My changes are now in:

        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git for-next

So we will get whatever linux-next testing there is.

/proc/fs/nfsd/exports is read-only so it turns out not be be a problem.

That we can not mount nfs or the nfsd control filesystem outside of
init_userns prevents any other problems.  Details are in my conversation
with Stanislav.

p.s. It would be nice if /proc/fs/nfsd/exports became a symlink to
/proc/net/nfsd/exports so the code didn't have to use current to figure
out how to do the right thing.

p.p.s Full user namespace support probably isn't much more than using
net->user_ns and adding the FS_USERNS_MOUNT flag.
