I can't understand this patch... but probably I missed something,
I never really understood setns.

At least you should also check that current is single-threaded,
I guess.

Both checks are obviously racy without tasklist.

Hmm. Doesn't this mean that pid_nr of this task (as it seen
in its current namespace) will be changed? This doesn't look
sane.

Hmm. So, until the caller does switch_task_namespaces()
task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->nsproxy->pid_ns,
doesn't look very nice too.

I don't think this can be right. If nothing else, this breaks
it_real_fn().
