[PATCH] nsproxy: extract create_nsproxy()

From: Alexey Dobriyan
Date: Sun May 03 2009 - 19:28:47 EST


clone_nsproxy() does useless copying of old nsproxy -- every pointer will be
rewritten to new ns or to old ns. Remove copying, rename clone_nsproxy(),
create_nsproxy() will be used by C/R code to create fresh nsproxy on restart.
