- Add a new set of functions for registering and unregistering per network namespace hooks. - Modify the old global namespace hook functions to use the per network namespace hooks in their implementation, so their remains a single list that needs to be walked for any hook (this is important for keeping the hook priority working and for keeping the code walking the hooks simple). - Only allow registering the per netdevice hooks in the network namespace where the network device lives. - Dynamically allocate the structures in the per network namespace hook list in nf_register_net_hook, and unregister them in nf_unregister_net_hook. Dynamic allocate is required somewhere as the number of network namespaces are not fixed so we might as well allocate them in the registration function. The chain of registered hooks on any list is expected to be small so the cost of walking that list to find the entry we are unregistering should also be small. Performing the management of the dynamically allocated list entries in the registration and unregistration functions keeps the complexity from spreading. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
