Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull ptrace fix from Eric Biederman:
"This fixes a brown paper bag bug. When I fixed the ptrace interaction
with user namespaces I added a new field ptracer_cred in struct_task
and I failed to properly initialize it on fork.
This dangling pointer wound up breaking runing setuid applications run
from the enlightenment window manager.
As this is the worst sort of bug. A regression breaking user space for
no good reason let's get this fixed"
