[PATCH] sparc: make copy_thread honor pid namespaces

On sparc, fork and clone syscalls have an unusual semantics of
returning the pid of the parent process to the child process.

Apparently, the implementation did not honor pid namespaces at all,
so the child used to get the pid of its parent in the init namespace.

This bug was found by strace test suite.

Isn't that just broken?
The application expects fork() to return 0 in the child.
libc would have to do horrid things to convert the result.

It could be comparing against the saved 'current pid' in
order to save a system call for the first ppid() call.
But that isn't ever going to work if it is possible to
create a child in a different pid namespace.

FWIW the test program ought to use syscall() to get the pid
and ppid - rather than relying on any optimisations in libc.

This needs to be shared to make the test case make sense.

The change below looks reasonable.  Unfortunately because copy_thread
comes before init_task_pid task_active_pid_ns(p) will not work
correctly.

The code below needs to use current->nsproxy->pid_ns_for_children
instead of task_active_pid_ns(p).

For sparc people.  Do we know of anyone who actually uses the parent pid
returned from fork to the child process?  If not the code can simply
return 0 and we don't have to do this.
