[Bug 1584163] [NEW] cgroup namespace update

 

Public bug reported:

 During xenial cycle we applied a patch (and a followon fix for criu)
to fix a usability problem with cgroup namespaces and /proc/self/mountinfo.
Since then, the approach to fix it upstream has changed.  Please revert
the two nsroot patches currently in xenial and yakkety, and replace them
with the new patches.

Impact:
One or the other of these patchsets suffices for docker in lxd to work.
The patchset being reverted required a docker patch, the new one does
not.  Docker cannot work inside lxd with neither patchset.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
