Hmm, all my guesses are coming up empty... which usually means there
is indeed a bug. Let me try some experiments here, but I may need to
send you a debug patch for more info. Thanks for the memmap=
insight... I do test with that, but let me see if there is something
specific about your config.
Brice, may I ask you to run:
udevadm monitor -p
...while running the "ndctl create-namespace" command and send the output?
