Hi,

Well, this is way trickier...

tc_mirred doesn't cope with netns movement of the target device.
See 'mirred_device_event': upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER the 'tcfm_dev' gets
nullified.

(dev_change_net_namespace sequence includes NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
 dev_net_set, NETDEV_REGISTER).

As upposed to veth, which keeps the peer netdev pointer (since veth peers
lifetime is coupled), here in act_mirred we can't easily distinguish a
"real" NETDEV_UNREGISTER vs a namespace change...
