[PATCH 1/2] autofs4: allow autofs to work outside the initial PID namespace

[Miklos Szeredi]

Patches were tested by the customer.

Ian, Eric, do these patches look OK?

Thanks,
Miklos

This patch enables autofs4 to work in a "container".  oz_pgrp is converted from
pid_t to struct pid and this is stored at mount time based on the "pgrp=" option
or if the option is missing then the current pgrp.

The "pgrp=" option is interpreted in the PID namespace of the current process.
This option is flawed in that it doesn't carry the namespace information, so it
should be deprecated.  AFAICS the autofs daemon always sends the current pgrp,
which is the default anyway.

The oz_pgrp is also set from the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SETPIPEFD_CMD ioctl.  This
ioctl sets oz_pgrp to the current pgrp.  It is not allowed to change the pid
namespace.

oz_pgrp is used mainly to determine whether the process traversing the autofs
mount tree is the autofs daemon itself or not.  This function now compares the
pid pointers instead of the pid_t values.

One other use of oz_pgrp is in autofs4_show_options.  There is shows the
virtual pid number (i.e. the one that is valid inside the PID namespace of the
calling process)

For debugging printk convert oz_pgrp to the value in the initial pid namespace.
