This is somewhat peculiar situation.
netns doesn't have unique ID like, say, ifindex.
The only number related to netns is "struct net *". They can be
distinguised by pointer value, but userspace when does clone(CLONE_NEWNET)
do not, obviously, control it and after creation doesn't have a way to find
it out.
And if we print with "%p, net" kernelspace pointer get exposed which is
not nice.
