setpriority(PRIO_USER, 0, x) will change the priority of tasks outside of
the current pid namespace. This is in contrast to both the other modes of
setpriority and the example of kill(-1). Fix this. getpriority and
ioprio have the same failure mode, fix them too.

: After some more thinking about it this patch sounds justifiable.

: My goal with namespaces is not to build perfect isolation mechanisms

: a single namespace with well defined results.

: In this case you have found the two interfaces I am aware of that
: identify processes by uid instead of by pid. Which quite frankly is
: weird. Unfortunately the weird unexpected cases are hard to handle
: in the usual way.

: I was hoping for a little more information. Changes like this one we

: behavior. I don't think they are and I do think this make sense as part
: of the pid namespace.

Priority of a merged request is computed by ioprio_best(). If one of the
requests has undefined priority (IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE) and another request
has priority from IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, the function will return the
undefined priority which is wrong. Fix the function to properly return
priority of a request with the defined priority.

Like commit f9c78b2b, move this block related file outside
of fs/ and into the core block directory, block/.
