NR_NAMESPACES is the total number of namespaces. For synthesized namespace
events, data is obtained from /proc/<pid>/ns/ dir. Looking at this dir, it
is difficult to arrive at the total number of namespaces in kernel, as
some namespaces can be compiled in/out of the kernel. NR_NAMESPACES is
used instead. Its value is most likely the same for kernel and perf tool
unless a new namespace is introduced - the warning in previous patch is
intended to alert the user about such scenario.
