Grr, This needs to go. I started with a general function but then
got specific to SI_USER.

Yes, I will undo this...

|

| 
| And why can't we just do
| 
|        default:
|               copy_siginfo(&q->info, info);
|               if (from_ancestor_ns)
|                       info->si_pid = 0;

and go with this.

| 
| ? Why should we check SI_USER and change sys_kill() ?
