+Subject: add sysctl to disallow unprivileged CLONE_NEWUSER by default
+Origin: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=serge%2Fubuntu-saucy.git;a=commit;h=5c847404dcb2e3195ad0057877e1422ae90892b8
+
+add sysctl to disallow unprivileged CLONE_NEWUSER by default
+
+This is a short-term patch. Unprivileged use of CLONE_NEWUSER
+is certainly an intended feature of user namespaces. However
+for at least saucy we want to make sure that, if any security
+issues are found, we have a fail-safe.
+
+Signed-off-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@ubuntu.com>
+[bwh: Remove unneeded binary sysctl bits]
+[bwh: Keep this sysctl, but change the default to enabled]
