Old patches, nothing that complains when you make a mistake like this,
and apparently I have a blind spot in my personal code review.

At one point it was not possible to enable the network namespace until
the sysfs stuff was enabled, but things have been going on long enough
that we worked around that restriction.

kobj_ns_type_register should not be under CONFIG_SYSFS.  Which means
that kobj_ns_type_operations needs not to be under CONFIG_SYSFS as
well.  That you for spotting that bug.

Grr.
