Thanks Serge for the patch.
This patch has overcome the problem of doing 'mount -t proc ..' while
running the container tests.

Subject
Pid namespaces: unshare mounts
namespace
If we unshare pidns without unsharing mounts namespace, and then do
a mount -t proc none /proc, then the new proc sits over the original
proc for the whole system.
Since pidns03 wasn't using CLONE_NEWNS, when it exited /proc showed
zero tasks. This can be fixed by doing 'umount -l /proc', but
'umount /proc' is insufficient. More to the point, pidns03 wasn't
trying to clean up /proc at all. So make it use CLONE_NEWNS so
its private procfs will be automatically cleaned up.
