    ms/ns: allow ns_entries to have custom symlink content
    
    ms commit: 25b14e92af1a563c7331466ca59188f88050bbf0
    
    Patch series "Expose task pid_ns_for_children to userspace".
    
    pid_ns_for_children set by a task is known only to the task itself, and
    it's impossible to identify it from outside.
    
    It's a big problem for checkpoint/restore software like CRIU, because it
    can't correctly handle tasks, that do setns(CLONE_NEWPID) in proccess of
    their work.  If they have a custom pid_ns_for_children before dump, they
    must have the same ns after restore.  Otherwise, restored task bumped
    into enviroment it does not expect.
    
    This patchset solves the problem.  It exposes pid_ns_for_children to ns
    directory in standard way with the name "pid_for_children":
    
    ~# ls /proc/5531/ns -l | grep pid
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 14 16:38 pid -> pid:[4026531836]
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 14 16:38 pid_for_children -> pid:[4026532286]
    
    This patch (of 2):
    
    Make possible to have link content prefix yyy different from the link
    name xxx:
    
    $ readlink /proc/[pid]/ns/xxx
    yyy:[4026531838]
    
    This will be used in next patch.
