+ * Minimal test case to reproduce KASAN out-of-bounds in listns pagination.
+ *
+ * The bug occurs when:
+ * 1. Filtering by a specific namespace type (e.g., CLONE_NEWUSER)
+ * 2. Using pagination (req.ns_id != 0)
+ * 3. The lookup_ns_id_at() call in do_listns() passes ns_type=0 instead of
+ * the filtered type, causing it to search the unified tree and potentially
+ * return a namespace of the wrong type.
