The proc_pid_ns() can be used for both inode and dentry. To avoid making
two identical functions, change the argument type of the proc_pid_ns().

So overall this looks good.

However, the description leaves a little bit to be desired as it does
not describe why it is bad to use dentry->d_sb.  A fixes tag would be
nice if for no other reason than to help anyone who decides to backport
this.

OK. I will add it.

And can you please compile test this?

There is a very silly typo in proc that keeps this from compiling.

I compiled the kernel with this patch and ran the kernel, but accidentally
did not check children_seq_show(). Sorry.

Thank you,
Eric
