This patchset completes netns support, by disabling debugfs entries
when not in the default name space, and correctly handling interface
stack loops when the parent is in a different name space.
It additionally adds netlink support for most of the information found
in debugfs, and is netns awaire.
Note: BLA is untested, so best assume it is broken...
v3:
* Fix the compat with older kernels. It now at least compiles with
3.18.32. I've not booted it though.
* Add missing kerneldoc
v2:
All changes requested by Sven:
* Added lots of missing includes and structure forward declarations
* Add two kernel doc comments
* Fixed an obvious bug in BLA, but it is probably still broken...
* Merged in the compat code Sven suggested. Only compile tested with 4.5.0
