From: David Ahern <[email-masked]>

Avoid the extra hurdle of creating an entry in /var/run/netns
and allow the netns argument to be a name or a pid.

v2
- update netns_get_fd to handle the pid fallback
- update devlink code

David Ahern (4):
  namespace: Add fallback to netns by pid
  iplink: Drop pid fallback code for netns
  rdma: Allow netns to be specified by pid
  devlink: Drop now duplicate pid fallback for netns
