[PATCH 0/3] ns: tweak ns common handling

[Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>]

This contains three minor tweaks for namespace handling:

* Make struct ns_tree private. There's no need for anything to access
  that directly.

* Drop a debug assert that would trigger in conditions that are benign.

* Move the type of the namespace out of struct proc_ns_operations and
  into struct ns_common. This eliminates a pointer dereference and also
  allows assertions to work when the namespace type is disabled and the
  operations field set to NULL.

"Trust me, just one more fixes series, bro. Just one more, bro."
