[PATCH -mm 2/8] user namespace: add the framework

Subject: [PATCH -mm 2/8] user namespace: add the framework

This patch adds the user namespace struct and framework

Basically, it will allow a process to unshare its user_struct table,
resetting at the same time its own user_struct and all the associated
accounting.

A new root user (uid == 0) is added to the user namespace upon
creation. Such root users have full privileges and it seems that
theses privileges should be controlled through some means (process
capabilities ?)

The unshare is not included in this patch.

Changes since [try #4]:
- Updated get_user_ns and put_user_ns to accept NULL, and
get_user_ns to return the namespace.

Changes since [try #3]:
- moved struct user_namespace to files user_namespace.{c,h}

Changes since [try #2]:
- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()

Changes since [try #1]:
- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()
- added a root_user per user namespace
