+ * Description
+ * Retrieve the cookie (generated by the kernel) of the network
+ * namespace the input *ctx* is associated with. The network
+ * namespace cookie remains stable for its lifetime and provides
+ * a global identifier that can be assumed unique. If *ctx* is
+ * NULL, then the helper returns the cookie for the initial
+ * network namespace. The cookie itself is very similar to that
+ * of bpf_get_socket_cookie() helper, but for network namespaces
+ * instead of sockets.
+ * Return
+ * A 8-byte long opaque number.
