coda: Restrict coda messages to the initial pid namespace
Remove the slight chance that pids in coda messages will be interpreted in the wrong pid namespace. - Explicitly send all pids in coda messages in the initial pid namespace. - Only allow mounts from processes in the initial pid namespace. - Only allow processes in the initial pid namespace to open the coda character device to communicate with coda.
