Could you describe with more details when you need to iterate
namespaces?
There are three ways to hold namespaces.
* processes
* bind-mounts
* file descriptors
When CRIU dumps a container, it enumirates all processes, collects file
descriptors and mounts. This means that we will be able to collect all
namespaces, doesn't it?
