Baring the 3.9 reference to reboot(2) which should be 3.4 I don't see
any problems.

I think you have reached the point where if there are any problems left
I will just have to send you patches after you publish because my eyes
are glassing over and I am not going to see any more problems right now.

One of those patches I am going to have to send you is I am fixing the
case below for 3.10
> clone(..., CLONE_VM, ...);
> setns(fd, CLONE_NEWPID); /* Fails */
>

It turns out that the check in fork/clone is sufficient.

The verbage about all of the namespaces is correct however since
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) doesn't actually change the pid_namespace it
doesn't matter.
