userns: Make create_new_namespaces take a user_ns parameter
Modify create_new_namespaces to explicitly take a user namespace parameter, instead of implicitly through the task_struct. This allows an implementation of unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) where the new user namespace is not stored onto the current task_struct until after all of the namespaces are created.
