The kernel uses open code to check if a process is in root PID namespace or not in several places.
Suggested by Suzuki, this patch set is to create a helper function task_is_in_init_pid_ns() to replace open code.
This patch set has been applied on the mainline kernel and built for Arm64 kernel with enabling all relevant modules.
Changes from v1: * Renamed helper function from task_is_in_root_ns() to task_is_in_init_pid_ns(). (Leon Romanovsky) * Improved patches' commit logs for more neat.
