Serge E. Hallyn b460cbc581 pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check.  Split it into
is_global_init() and is_container_init().

A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1.

A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace
is the init_pid_ns.  But rather than check the active pid namespace,
compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is
initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes.

Changelog:

	2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1:
	- Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the
	  global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance
	  and remove dependence on the task_pid().

	2.6.21-mm2-pidns2:

	- [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc,
	  ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().
	  This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a
	  bug rather than force a kernel panic.
