Subject: [PATCH 2/9] mnt: expose pointer to init_mnt_ns
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 12:28:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250917-work-namespace-ns_common-v1-2-1b3bda8ef8f2@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250917-work-namespace-ns_common-v1-0-1b3bda8ef8f2@kernel.org>

There's various scenarios where we need to know whether we are in the
initial set of namespaces or not to e.g., shortcut permission checking.
All namespaces expose that information. Let's do that too.
