In itself it seems an ok check (temporarily) to make sure that the
net_ns hook to unset the tag.netns at netns release is properly working,
but given that it's only checking for net_ns coding errors, and Tejun
wants a whole generic hooking infrastructure for net_ns to register with
so as to keep mention of net_ns out of sysfs code, yeah I think the sane
thing is to just remove it.
But the first thing (after Daniel is finished with the patch 5 fallout)
is to address the patch 6 comments about using ida. At first I didn't
like it (seemed like too much bookkeeping) but I think it'll actually
work out very nicely.
