From 2e70aedd3d522b018c01df172cd213a8a75e2d55 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Sun, 3 May 2015 08:04:28 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "net: kernel socket should be released in init_net namespace" This reverts commit c243d7e20996254f89c28d4838b5feca735c030d. That patch is solving a non-existant problem while creating a real problem. Just because a socket is allocated in the init name space doesn't mean that it gets hashed in the init name space. When we unhash it the name space must be the same as the one we had when we hashed it. So this patch is completely bogus and causes socket leaks.
