[PATCH 1/1] ipv4: net namespace does not inherit network configurations

[Zhu Yanjun]

Ipv4 net namespace requires a similar logic change as commit c900a800
[ipv6: fix bad free of addrconf_init_net] introduces for newer kernels.

Since a net namespace is independent to another. That is, there
is no any relationship between the net namespaces. So a new net
namespace should not inherit network configurations from another
net namespace including the host.
