xu xin 8c8b7aa7fb net: Enable neighbor sysctls that is save for userns root
Inside netns owned by non-init userns, sysctls about ARP/neighbor is
currently not visible and configurable.

For the attributes these sysctls correspond to, any modifications make
effects on the performance of networking(ARP, especilly) only in the
scope of netns, which does not affect other netns.

Actually, some tools via netlink can modify these attribute. iproute2 is
an example. see as follows:

$ unshare -ur -n
$ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/lo/retrans_time
cat: can't open '/proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/lo/retrans_time': No such file
or directory
$ ip ntable show dev lo

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
