Hi all,

After merging the pidfd tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allnoconfig) failed like this:

fs/nsfs.c:232:6: error: redefinition of 'proc_ns_file'
  232 | bool proc_ns_file(const struct file *file)
      |      ^~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from fs/nsfs.c:6:
include/linux/proc_fs.h:194:20: note: previous definition of 'proc_ns_file' was here
  194 | static inline bool proc_ns_file(const struct file *file)
      |                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commit

  1e76b8ad203a ("nsproxy: attach to namespaces via pidfds")

I have applied the following hack for today:
