This patch adds struct user_namespace *owner_user_ns to the tty_struct. Then it is set to current_user_ns() in the alloc_tty_struct function. This is done to facilitate capability checks against the original user namespace that allocated the tty. E.g. ns_capable(tty->owner_user_ns,CAP_SYS_ADMIN) This combined with the use of user namespace's will allow hardening protections to be built to mitigate container escapes that utilize TTY ioctls such as TIOCSTI.
