Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  [Impact]

  The netlink flag NLM_F_ECHO has no effect with the rtnetlink command
  RTM_NEWNSID. This has been fixed in v5.4 by the upstream commit
  993e4c929a07 ("netns: fix NLM_F_ECHO mechanism for RTM_NEWNSID"). The
  bug is here since v4.0.

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=993e4c929a07

  == Fix ==

  Backport the requested patches to Disco (5.0), Bionic (4.15) and
  Xenial (4.4).

  == Risk of Regregression ==

  This patch is quite trivial and limited to the code that manage
  RTM_[NEW|GET]NSID commands. Risk should be low.
