Hi all
As discussed above,if the host machine create several linux
containers, there will be several net namespaces.Resources with "nf
conntrack" are registered or unregistered on the first net
namespace(init_net),But init_net is not unregistered lastly,so
cleanuping other net namespaces will triger painic.
If net namespaces are created with the order of 1,2,...n,they should
be cleaned with the order of n,...2,1,so in this case init_net will be
unregistered lastly.
I fixed it up (see below)
