This reverts commit 373beb35cd6b625e0ba4ad98baace12310a26aa8.

No one is using this identifier yet.  The purpose of this identifier
is to export nsproxy to user space which is wrong.  nsproxy is
an internal implementation optimization, which should keep our
fork times from getting slower as we increase the number of global
namespaces you don't have to share.

Adding a global identifier like this is inappropriate because it makes
namespaces inherently non-recursive, greatly limiting what we can
do with them in the future.
