Subject: utsname namespace : fix unshare when CONFIG_UTS_NS is not set
From: Cedric Le Goater <clg@xxxxxxxxxx>
If the kernel is not configured with the CONFIG_UTS_NS, unshare of ipc
namespace will fail and return -EINVAL.
The patch changes the dummy unshare_utsname() to check the clone flags
before returning.
