[PATCH net-next 2/2] selftest/tcp-ao: Work on namespace-ified sysctl_optmem_max

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Thu Dec 21 2023 - 21:00:00 EST


Since commit f5769faeec36 ("net: Namespace-ify sysctl_optmem_max")
optmem_max is per-netns, so need of switching to root namespace.
It seems trivial to keep the old logic working, so going to keep it for
a while (at least, until kernel with netns-optmem_max will be release).

Currently, there is a test that checks that optmem_max limit applies to
TCP-AO keys and a little benchmark that measures linked-list TCP-AO keys
scaling, those are fixed by this.
