At a first glance this feels wrong.  I don't see any per
namespace filtering of multicast traffic.  Unless the
multicast traffic is routed/bridged between namespaces
it should be possible to send multicast traffic in one
namespace and listen for that same traffic in another
namespace and not get it.
