I see you point Van,

In the other hand, removing it, cleans up lot of conditional code parts
(moving parts at the other side),
and also the non-netns case is not tested by upstream CI, AFAIK, so it
could be broken anytime
and we would not notice it.

I think there are valid reasons to not use namespaces:

Well, you exactly made my point:
There is lots that can and will go wrong with more moving parts.
That they are fixed at the moment does not mean that there will not be
a new bug in the future…

FWIW we were doing CI without namespaces before Kilo simply due to RHEL 6.5 not having the support w/o a kernel patch.

Since Kilo dropped py26 support we moved to RHEL 7* for py27 and that has namespace support so it's no longer an issue for us.
