[PATCH] pidns: fix set/getpriority and ioprio_set/get in PRIO_USER mode

From: bsegall
Date: Wed Sep 16 2015 - 15:58:12 EST


setpriority(PRIO_USER, 0, x) will change the priority of tasks outside
of the current pid namespace. This is in contrast to both the other
modes of setpriority and the example of kill(-1). Fix this. getpriority
and ioprio have the same failure mode, fix them too.
