If we can't just pass the message thourgh I don't expect genetlink is a
particularly good interface for this.
It would be nice if we could open some appropriate thing and the act of
getting a file descriptor ould suppress all of the uevent broadcast
messages in that network namespace.
Further GENL_ADMIN_PERM is an unfortunate choice for a permission check.
I don't see it as exploitable but I am not certain CAP_SYS_ADMIN is the
best capability to check. Beyond that we probably want to arrange
things so that we can use ns_capable so we can allow containers to hand
off their devices to child containers.
Implementations that do not allow for containers to nest bother me.
