[PATCH net-next v7 04/11] ieee802154: 6lowpan: Use link netns in newlink() of rtnl_link_ops

From: Xiao Liang <hidden>
Date: 2025-01-04 12:58:20
Also in: batman, bpf, bridge, linux-can, linux-kselftest, linux-rdma, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: ieee 802.15.4 subsystem, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Aring, Stefan Schmidt, Miquel Raynal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

When link_net is set, use it as link netns instead of dev_net(). This
prepares for rtnetlink core to create device in target netns directly,
in which case the two namespaces may be different.
