net: create reusable function for getting ownership info of sysfs inodes
Make net_ns_get_ownership() reusable by networking code outside of core. This is useful, for example, to allow bridge related sysfs files to be owned by container root. Add a function comment since this is a potentially dangerous function to use given the way that kobject_get_ownership() works by initializing uid and gid before calling .get_ownership().
