As discussed on-list (cf. [1]), in order to make setns() support time namespaces when attaching to multiple namespaces at once properly we need to tweak vdso_join_timens() to always succeed. So switch vdso_join_timens() to using a read lock and replacing mmap_write_lock_killable() to mmap_read_lock() as we discussed. Last cycle setns() was changed to support attaching to multiple namespaces atomically. This requires all namespaces to have a point of no return where they can't fail anymore. Specifically, <namespace-type>_install() is allowed to perform permission checks and install the namespace into the new struct nsset that it has been given but it is not allowed to make visible changes to the affected task. Once <namespace-type>_install() returns anything that the given namespace type requires to be setup in addition needs to ideally be done in a function that can't fail or if it fails the failure is not fatal. For time namespaces the relevant functions that fall into this category are timens_set_vvar_page() and vdso_join_timens(). Currently the latter can fail but doesn't need to. With this we can go on to implement a timens_commit() helper in a follow up patch to be used by setns().
