With this patch, a user can define an id for a peer netns by providing a FD or a PID. These ids are local to netns (ie valid only into one netns). This will be useful for netlink messages when a x-netns interface is dumped.
You have a "id -> struct net *" table but you don't have a "struct net * -> id" table which looks like it will impact the performance of peernet2id at scale. Eric
