+Subject: [PATCH] ipmonitor: fix ip monitor can't work when NET_NS is not
+ enabled
+
+In ip monitor, netns_map_init will check getnsid is supported or not.
+But when /proc/self/ns/net does not exist, we just print out error
+messages and exit. So user cannot use ip monitor anymore when
+CONFIG_NET_NS is disabled:
+  # ip monitor
+  open("/proc/self/ns/net"): No such file or directory
+
+If open "/proc/self/ns/net" failed, set have_rtnl_getnsid to false.
+
+Fixes: d652ccbf8195 ("netns: allow to dump and monitor nsid")
