Subject[RFC v13][PATCH 11/14] External checkpoint of a task other than ourself
Date
Now we can do "external" checkpoint, i.e. act on another task.

sys_checkpoint() now looks up the target pid (in our namespace) and
checkpoints that corresponding task. That task should be the root of
a container.

sys_restart() remains the same, as the restart is always done in the
context of the restarting task.

Changelog[v12]:
- Replace obsolete cr_debug() with pr_debug()

Changelog[v11]:
- Copy contents of 'init->fs->root' instead of pointing to them

Changelog[v10]:
- Grab vfs root of container init, rather than current process
