pid namespaces: introduce MS_KERNMOUNT flag
This flag tells the .get_sb callback that this is a kern_mount() call so that
it can trust *data pointer to be valid in-kernel one. If this flag is passed
from the user process, it is cleared since the *data pointer is not a valid
kernel object.
Running a few steps forward - this will be needed for proc to create the
superblock and store a valid pid namespace on it during the namespace
creation. The reason, why the namespace cannot live without proc mount is
described in the appropriate patch.
