Hello: This series was applied to netdev/net-next.git (main) by Jakub Kicinski [off-list ref]: On Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:37:30 -0700 you wrote:
NETDEV_CMD_BIND_RX is GENL_ADMIN_PERM, which checks CAP_NET_ADMIN against init_user_ns. With netkit and netns support for devmem, it is now useful to let workloads holding CAP_NET_ADMIN only in their own user_ns issue bind-rx for a netns owned by that user_ns. The first patch switches the flag to GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM so the check uses the target netns's owning user_ns. Init remains permitted. [...]
