From: Vadim Kochan <vadi...@gmail.com>
Added possibility to change network namespace
for phy device by network namespace name from
/var/run/netns or by absolute file path:
iw phy XXX set netns <nsname> | <pid>
First iw tries to find given nsname from /var/run/netns
or by absoute path (in case if nsname contains "/") and if
it failed to open nsname file then iw uses given argument as <pid>.
Also added missing NL80211 attributes before NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY_NETNS.
