My main use-case for this is to be able to match the inode number in
the /proc/<pid>/ns/net symlink with the correct ref_tracker debugfs
file. Is there a way to use the net_cookie to make that association?
If there isn't, and ns.inum is always 1 with procfs is disabled, we
could just skip adding the symlink when CONFIG_PROC_FS=n.
