Eric, Is there something that documents at what state each of the
callbacks in the network subsystem can be called? Like a big flow chart
of some sorts?

I'm asking because I've looked at this as well before sending this mail,
and while the fix does look trivial, I wasn't sure whether it is really
the correct fix, or the problem is that this callback wasn't supposed be
called at all so something else is broken (we had such issue with
namespaces and unshare() not long ago).
