[PATCH 6/8] cgroup: mount cgroupns-root when inside non-init cgroupns

[serge . hallyn]

From: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch enables cgroup mounting inside userns when a process
as appropriate privileges. The cgroup filesystem mounted is
rooted at the cgroupns-root. Thus, in a container-setup, only
the hierarchy under the cgroupns-root is exposed inside the container.
This allows container management tools to run inside the containers
without depending on any global state.

Changelog:
	20151116 - Don't allow user namespaces to bind new subsystems
	20151118 - postpone the FS_USERNS_MOUNT flag until the
	           last patch, until we can convince ourselves it
		   is safe.
	20151207 - Switch to walking up the kernfs path from kn root.
		 - Group initialized variables
		 - Explain the capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check
		 - Style fixes
