Add a function to change the owner of a network device when it is moved between network namespaces. Currently, when moving network devices between network namespaces the ownership of the corresponding sysfs entries is not changed. This leads to problems when tools try to operate on the corresponding sysfs files. This leads to a bug whereby a network device that is created in a network namespaces owned by a user namespace will have its corresponding sysfs entry owned by the root user of the corresponding user namespace. If such a network device has to be moved back to the host network namespace the permissions will still be set to the user namespaces. This means unprivileged users can e.g. trigger uevents for such incorrectly owned devices. They can also modify the settings of the device itself. Both of these things are unwanted. For example, workloads will create network devices in the host network namespace. Other tools will then proceed to move such devices between network namespaces owner by other user namespaces. While the ownership of the device itself is updated in net/core/net-sysfs.c:dev_change_net_namespace() the corresponding sysfs entry for the device is not: drwxr-xr-x 5 nobody nobody 0 Jan 25 18:08 .
