Why I did it
When building libnl3 inside a container with a newer kernel (such as what is used on Ubuntu 24.04), some commands to create a private network namespace may fail due to restrictions. This was seen in libnl3's own Github Actions CI, and is now seen on build machines running Ubuntu 24.04 as the host with kernel 6.8.
