[Devel] [RFC][PATCH] Add pspace to task_struct

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Add a notion of pid space to task_struct. Currently there is only one
pid space, init_pspace and all tasks belong to this pspace. When a new
task is created, it inherits its parent's pid space (in copy_process()).

This is based on Eric Biederman's patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/285
