...  right.

Either the ima and mounts namespaces are so closely tied that ima_ns
should be unshared on every CLONE_NEWNS, or not.  If they are, then
every setns(CLONE_NEWNS)  must also change the ima_ns.  That is not the
case here.  Every clone creates a new ima_ns, but we're not forcing
tasks to be in the ima_ns that is matched with its mntns, and
furthermore we have another object lifecycle to worry about.

It still seems to me that the only sane way to do this is to have the
ima_ns be its own object;  have it be owned by a user_ns;  require
CAP_SYS_ADMIN (or better CAP_MAC_ADMIN) to your current userns to
clone a new one, maybe with no other tasks in userns yet, for good
measure.  And support hierarchical measuring (so parents can still
get information about a child's actions).

If IMA is to be at all trustworthy for remote appraisal, then I do
not see how you can let a privileged insecure container completely
bypass IMA.  The key difference between allowing new ima_ns with
mntns or only with userns is that after unsharing my user_ns, my
privilege with respect to the parent is lost.  A new mntns doesn't
change anything about how I can corrupt the parent.
