Comments regarding patch about setting netns for wireless devices

Hi All,

I'd like to get some feedback about the patch:
    https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/4890451/

The idea is that currently Linux wireless device is allowed to change
the network namespace only by nl80211 API, so RTM_LINK API does
not work. So I think that it should be possible to change netns
through the RTM_LINK too as generic way to change netns,
thats why I tried to solve this in the patch.

Thanks,

I think Johannes is vacationing right now.  I'm sure he will comment
when he returns.
