4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 16a34adb9392b2fe4195267475ab5b472e55292c upstream. We want it only for the stuff created by SB_KERNMOUNT mounts, *not* for their copies. As it is, creating a deep stack of bindings of /proc/*/ns/* somewhere in a new namespace and exiting yields a stack overflow.
