Public bug reported: Filesystems ordinarily mounted beneath /sys, particularly /sys/fs/cgroup, are not mounted within network namespaces created by ip-netns(8), as lib/namespace.c:netns_switch() explicitly remounts /sys. The patch enclosed removes the offending calls to umount2(2) and mount(2), leaving the /sys hierarchy intact within network namespaces.
