Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Update statedump to 3.17 nsproxy locking
This Linux upstream commit introduces locking strategy back and forth:
commit 728dba3a39c66b3d8ac889ddbe38b5b1c264aec3
Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Date: Mon Feb 3 19:13:49 2014 -0800
namespaces: Use task_lock and not rcu to protect nsproxy
Use the task lock starting from kernel 3.17 rather than RCU to access
the task nsproxy.
