Could not mount sysfs when enable userns but disable netns

[chenhanxiao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello,

How to reproduce:
1. Prepare a container, enable userns and disable netns
2. use libvirt-lxc to start a container
3. libvirt could not mount sysfs then failed to start.

Then I found that
commit 7dc5dbc879bd0779924b5132a48b731a0bc04a1e says:
"Don't allow mounting sysfs unless the caller has CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights
over the net namespace."

But why should we check sysfs mouont permission over net namespace?
We've already checked CAP_SYS_ADMIN though.

What the relationship between sysfs and net namespace,
or this check is a little redundant?

Any insights on this?

Thanks,
- Chen

PS: codes below could be a workaround
