I've seen similar soft lockup traces from the sys_unshare path when

In some cases, it takes so long that the watchdog process kills it --
 though the SIGKILL won't get delivered until the unshare() completes)

Any idea what this machine had been doing prior to this that may have
involved creating lots of namespaces ?

That was right after boot. ;) 

This is my main rawhide running laptop.

A 'ip netns list' shows nothing.
