Steps involved:

1> For Running LTP inside container:
      - Created container on say 2100 port
      - SSH on port 2100
      - Ran LTP inside container

2> For Running LTP in parent namespace:
      - SSHed
      - Ran LTP.

Looking at the above data, there is only concern for me is why syslog
testcases are failing only with running LTP inside parent namespace and
pass inside container-init, when we enable container stuffs as (
CONFIG_PID_NS =y ).

Meanwhile i am also looking for the root cause, just wanted to inform
community so that we will have quick solution for the cause.

I am also attaching config file if anyone interested, (Note: Ideally i
should attach two config for with container and without container, But only
difference is in CONFIG_PID_NS and CONFIG_USER_NS ).

(See attached file: config)

Thanks
