[Devel] [net-2.6.24][NETNS][patch 2/3] fix loopback network namespace initialization

[dlezcano at fr.ibm.com]

From: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano at fr.ibm.com>

The core patchset of the network namespace sent by 
Eric Biederman does not do dynamic loopback creation.
So there is no call to alloc_netdev_mq which fills the
network namespace field of the netdevice.

This patch assign the loopback to the init network namespace.
