Implement an IMA namespace data structure that gets created alongside a
user namespace with CLONE_NEWUSER. This lays down the foundation for
namespacing the different aspects of IMA (eg. IMA-audit, IMA-measurement,
IMA-appraisal).

Instead of greedily allocating a new ima namespace for each new user
namespace creation and wasting memory that is likely wasted since most
containers won't use ima (for a long time at least) have you considered
lazily allocating it like I suggested in one of my first reviews?

So under the assumption that the only way for a container to get its own
ima policy it needs to have mounted a new securityfs instance you can
move the ima namespace allocation into fill_super/ima_fs_ns_init():

Subject: [PATCH] !!!! HERE BE DRAGONS - COMPLETELY UNTESTED !!!!

Lazily initialize ima_ns. This avoids pointlessly wasting memory that is never
needed or used which I think will be the case for most containers.
