[PATCH 1/8] ns: don't skip active reference count initialization

From: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
Date: 2025-11-09 21:13:23
Also in: bpf, cgroups, linux-fsdevel, lkml
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Don't skip active reference count initialization for initial namespaces.
Doing this will break network namespace active reference counting.

Fixes: 3a18f809184b ("ns: add active reference count")
Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
