Subject[PATCH 04/10] allow killing tasks in your own or child userns

Changelog:
Dec 8: Fixed bug in my check_kill_permission pointed out by
Eric Biederman.
Dec 13: Apply Eric's suggestion to pass target task into kill_ok_by_cred()
for clarity
Dec 31: address comment by Eric Biederman:
don't need cred/tcred in check_kill_permission.
Jan 1: use const cred struct.
Jan 11: Per Bastian Blank's advice, clean up kill_ok_by_cred().
Feb 16: kill_ok_by_cred: fix bad parentheses
Feb 23: per akpm, let compiler inline kill_ok_by_cred
