> This patchset aims to add net namespace support for TIPC stack.
> 
> Currently TIPC module declares the following global resources:
> - TIPC network idenfication number
> - TIPC node table
> - TIPC bearer list table
> - TIPC broadcast link
> - TIPC socket reference table
> - TIPC name service table
> - TIPC node address
> - TIPC service subscriber server
> - TIPC random value
> - TIPC netlink
> 
> In order that TIPC is aware of namespace, above each resource must be
> allocated, initialized and destroyed inside per namespace. Therefore,
> the major works of this patchset are to isolate these global resources
> and make them private for each namespace. However, before these changes
> come true, some necessary preparation works must be first done: convert
> socket reference table with generic rhashtable, cleanup core.c and
> core.h files, remove unnecessary wrapper functions for kernel timer
> interfaces and so on.
