Would a patch implementing the netns feature to iplink.c be interesting?

[blowfist]

Hey there,

I've made a few patches to busybox to add a few standard features to
busybox which aren't yet supported in busybox. I'm using these for my project
jailTools and I was wondering if they would stand any chance of being merged
into busybox.

I'll start with my first patch which implements the netns feature to
iplink.c.

It's basically used when creating virtual ethernet devices (veth) and to
set one of the created pair to a specific network namespace. It has
exactly the same usage as iproute2 and I've been using it for a very
long while so it works very well. The value that it takes is the PID of
a process with the unshared network namespace.

Tell me what you think, thanks
