It looks like we warn here,

...but then in cases like this we immediately dereference the pointer
anyways and crash. Can we return some other error code here in the !ns
case so we don't crash?

My concern here is I don't want to add code to check an error case that
cannot happen. The first namespace binfmt_ns pointer is initialized with
&init_binfmt_ns, so the return value cannot be NULL.

Thanks,
