Subject[PATCH] fs: add an ioctl to get an owning userns for a superblock
Date
The introduced ioctl returns a file descriptor that refers to a owning
user namespace for a superblock which is associated with a target file
descriptor.

EPERM is returned if the current process doesn't have CAP_SYS_ADMIN in
the returned user namespace.

This information is required to dump and restore mount namespaces. We
need to know to which user namespace a superblock is belonged to.

We already have the SIOCGSKNS ioctl for sockets to get a network
namespace, so it looks reasonable to use the same interface for
superblocks too.

This functionality can be useful for users in order to understand
a running system.
