[PATCH 07/08]
This patch makes msgmni not recomputed anymore upon ipc namespace
creation /
removal or memory add/remove, as soon as it has been set from userland.
As soon as msgmni is explicitely set via procfs or sysctl(), the
associated
callback routine is unregistered from the ipc namespace notifier chain.
The patch series looks pretty good.

If you haven't done so, could you please check that it all builds cleanly
with CONFIG_PROCFS=n, and that all code which isn't needed if procfs is
disabled is not present in the final binary?
Andrew,
it builds fine, modulo some changes in ipv4 and ipv6 (see attached patch
- didn't find it in the hot fixes).
Regards,
Nadia
Oops, forgot the patch. Thx Benjamin!
Fix header files to let IPV4 and IPV6 build if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n
