kernfs has historically used const void * to pass around namespace tags used for directory-level namespace filtering. The only current user of this is sysfs network namespace tagging where struct net pointers are cast to void *. Replace all const void * namespace parameters with const struct ns_common * throughout the kernfs, sysfs, and kobject namespace layers. This includes the kobj_ns_type_operations callbacks, kobject_namespace(), and all sysfs/kernfs APIs that accept or return namespace tags. Passing struct ns_common is needed because various codepaths require access to the underlying namespace. A struct ns_common can always be converted back to the concrete namespace type (e.g., struct net) via container_of() or to_ns_common() in the reverse direction. This is a preparatory change for switching to ns_id-based directory iteration to prevent a KASLR pointer leak through the current use of raw namespace pointers as hash seeds and comparison keys.
