The patch titled
fix setsid() for sub-namespace /sbin/init
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
fix-setsid-for-sub-namespace-sbin-init.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: fix setsid() for sub-namespace /sbin/init
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
sys_setsid() still deals with pid_t's from the global namespace. This means
that the "session > 1" check can't help for sub-namespace init, setsid() can't
succeed because copy_process(CLONE_NEWPID) populates PIDTYPE_PGID/SID links.
Remove the usage of task_struct->pid and convert the code to use "struct pid".
This also simplifies and speedups the code, saves one find_pid().
