Subject: tipc: make dist queue pernet
From: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 541726abe7daca64390c2ec34e6a203145f1686d upstream.
Nametable updates received from the network that cannot be applied
immediately are placed on a defer queue. This queue is global to the
TIPC module, which might cause problems when using TIPC in containers.
To prevent nametable updates from escaping into the wrong namespace,
we make the queue pernet instead.
