    Subject[PATCH 16/43] userns: Simplify the user_namespace by making userns->creator a kuid.
    From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

    - Transform userns->creator from a user_struct reference to a simple
    kuid_t, kgid_t pair.

    In cap_capable this allows the check to see if we are the creator of
    a namespace to become the classic suser style euid permission check.

    This allows us to remove the need for a struct cred in the mapping
    functions and still be able to dispaly the user namespace creators
    uid and gid as 0.

    - Remove the now unnecessary delayed_work in free_user_ns.

    All that is left for free_user_ns to do is to call kmem_cache_free
    and put_user_ns. Those functions can be called in any context
    so call them directly from free_user_ns removing the need for delayed work.
