[PATCH -mm 1/9] unshare system call: system call handler function

[PATCH -mm 1/9] unshare system call: system call handler function

sys_unshare system call handler function accepts the same flags as
clone system call, checks constraints on each of the flags and invokes
corresponding unshare functions to disassociate respective process
context if it was being shared with another task.

Changes since the first submission of this patch on 12/12/05:
- Moved cleaning up of old shared structures outside of the
block that holds task_lock (12/13/05)
