Audit events could happen in a network namespace outside of a task
context due to packets received from the net that trigger an auditing
rule prior to being associated with a running task.  The network
namespace could in use by multiple containers by association to the
tasks in that network namespace.  We still want a way to attribute
these events to any potential containers.  Keep a list per network
namespace to track these container identifiiers.

Add/increment the container identifier on:
- initial setting of the container id via /proc
- clone/fork call that inherits a container identifier
- unshare call that inherits a container identifier
- setns call that inherits a container identifier
Delete/decrement the container identifier on:
- an inherited container id dropped when child set
- process exit
- unshare call that drops a net namespace
- setns call that drops a net namespace

Hopefully we can handle this in audit_net_init(), we just need to
figure out where we can get the correct task_struct for the audit
container ID (some backpointer in the net struct?).
I don't follow.  This needs to happen on every task startup.
audit_net_init() is only called when a new network namespace starts up.
Yep, sorry, my mistake.  I must have confused myself when I was
looking at the code.

I'm thinking out loud here, bear with me ...

Assuming we move the netns/audit-container-ID tracking to audit_net,
and considering we already have an audit hook in copy_process() (it
calls audit_alloc()), would this be better handled by the
copy_process() hook?  This ignores naming, audit_alloc() reuse, etc.;
those can be easily fixed.  I'm just thinking of ways to limit our
impact on the core kernel and leverage our existing interaction
points.
