Subject: [patch -mm] namespaces: exit_task_namespaces() invalidates nsproxy
Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2006 18:20:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4512BBEB.2000200@fr.ibm.com> (raw)

exit_task_namespaces() has replaced the former exit_namespace(). It
invalidates task->nsproxy and associated namespaces. This is an issue
for the (futur) pid namespace which is required to be valid in
exit_notify().

This patch moves exit_task_namespaces() after exit_notify() to keep
nsproxy valid.
