Subject: [PATCH] userns: Allow init_user_ns to be used from non-gpl modules
Date: Mon, 23 May 2016 15:00:08 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464004808-21214-1-git-send-email-n.borisov.lkml@gmail.com> (raw)
This patch changes the export attributes of the init_user_ns from
GPL-only to any modules. This needed so that non-gpl modules, such as
ZFS, utilize functions like i_(uid|gid)_(read|write).
