[RESEND] [PATCH stable-2.6.32] Phonet: disable network namespace support

Network namespace in the Phonet socket stack causes an OOPS when a
namespace is destroyed. This occurs as the loopback exit_net handler is
called after the Phonet exit_net handler, and re-enters the Phonet
stack. I cannot think of any nice way to fix this in kernel <= 2.6.32.

For lack of a better solution, disable namespace support completely.
If you need that, upgrade to a newer kernel.
