Yes we can avoid extra fork() in above way, but I think it is better not only
setting pid ns before fork, but setting all ns before fork.
If we set pid ns before fork and set other ns after fork, the setting of ns code
will be separated into two parts, and because it is a caller's hook, it will make
the caller code complex.
If we set all ns before fork, both caller's code and the function will be simple,
the kthread will switch all ns before fork, do fork, and switch back, the child
process will inherit all ns from kthread(except for ns_for_child).
Above way seems having no problem, but I have small worry that we touched
ns of a kthread, please tell me if I losted something.
What is your opinion?
Thanks
