Subject: [PATCH 2/3] netns: add dummy struct inside "struct net_generic"
Date: Fri, 2 Dec 2016 04:12:58 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161202011258.GC31170@avx2> (raw)

This is precursor to fixing "[id - 1]" bloat inside net_generic().

Name "s" is chosen to complement name "u" often used for dummy unions.
