[RFC PATCH v4 07/12] kmod - add call_usermodehelper_ns()

From: Ian Kent
Date: Mon Mar 16 2015 - 22:46:03 EST


From: Ian Kent <ikent@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add function call_usermodehelper_ns() to allow passing a namespace
token to lookup previously stored namespace information for usermode
helper execution.
