Subject: [iproute PATCH 0/2] Netns performance improvements

Stress-testing OpenStack Neutron revealed poor performance of 'ip netns'
when dealing with a high amount of namespaces. The cause of this lies in
the combination of how iproute2 mounts NETNS_RUN_DIR and the netns files
therein and the fact that systemd makes all mount points of the system
shared.

Phil Sutter (2):
  ipnetns: Move NETNS_RUN_DIR into it's own propagation group
  ipnetns: Make netns mount points private
