[PATCH 1/3] Save dump_root into pid_namespace

[Zhao Lei]

In current system, when we set core_pattern to a pipe, both pipe program
and program's output are in host's filesystem.
But when we set core_pattern to a file, the container will write dump
into container's filesystem.

Reason of above different is:
In pipe_mode dump_pattern setting, the process who write the dumpfile
is a kernel thread, whose fs_root always point to host's root fs.

This patch save the dump_root into pid_namespace, and when a crach
happened in container, this dump_root can be used as fs_root of
dump_writter_thread.
