[PATCH V5 01/13] namespaces: assign each namespace instance a serial number

From: Richard Guy Briggs
Date: Mon Oct 06 2014 - 01:12:09 EST

Generate and assign a serial number per namespace instance since boot.

Use a serial number per namespace (unique across one boot of one kernel)
instead of the inode number (which is claimed to have had the right to change
reserved and is not necessarily unique if there is more than one proc fs) to
uniquely identify it per kernel boot.
