If you don't mind, I think it is "safer" to keep it: some selftests are
using 'cleanup_ns()' directly, not via 'cleanup_all_ns()', e.g.
netns-name.sh, cmsg-*.sh, fib-*.sh, etc. which can call it with the
variables not set if 'setup_ns' failed during the init phase.

For the moment, all these selftests are calling 'cleanup_ns()' with
parameters added without double quotes: so it is fine. Until someone
changes that to please shellcheck, like we did on our side with MPTCP
selftests. So this line will be useful soon when we will publish the
rest of our patches to use 'lib.sh' [1] :)
