The changelog doesn't mention why these fields are being added.
I'd prefer to see the parts of this patch that deal with the above
fields added in a separate patch. I'm guessing that you added them here
because this patch adds the need to check ns ownership for listns(),
but I think it warrants a separate patch and changelog explaining
what's going on.
