Subject: [patch 02/12] net namespace : store L2 parent namespace

From: [email-masked]
Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2007 16:47:16 +0100

From: Daniel Lezcano <[email-masked]>

All L3 namespaces are the final nodes of the L2 namespaces
tree. Because their share some ressources coming from the L2
namespace. The L2 parent namespace should be stored into the L3 child
when it is created.
