Ok. I have kicked around a lot implementation ideas and took a good hard
look at my /proc/net implementation. The patch below should close all
of the holes with /proc/net that I am aware of.
Bind mounts work and properly capture /proc/net/
stat of /proc/net and /proc/net/ return the same information.
cd /proc/net/ ; ls .. works
The dentry has the proper parent and no longer appears deleted.
As well as few more theoretical cases I have been able to imagine,
like open("/proc/net", O_NOFOLLOW | O_DIRECTORY) getdents...
Please take a look and kick this patch around. I don't expect anyone
to find any issues but a few more eyeballs before I send this
along to Linus would be appreciated. Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] proc_net: Remove userspace visible changes.
This patch fixes some bugs in corner cases of the /proc/net
implementation.
In proc_net_shadow_dentry.
- Set the parent dentry properly.
- Make the dentry appear hashed so .. works.
Remove the unreachable proc_net_lookup.
Implement proc_net_getattr to complete the
set of implemented inode operations.
Implement proc_net_open which changes the directory we
are openting to remove the need to implement any other
file operations.
Add a big fat comment on how /proc/net works to make it
easier for someone else to look at and understand this code.
This patch should remove the last of the accidental user visible artifacts
that arose from adding network namespace support to /proc/net.

+/*
+ * The contents of the files under /proc/net depend on which network
+ * namespace you are in.
+ *
+ * This implementation relies on the following properties.
+ *
+ * - Each network namespaces has it's own /proc/net dcache tree.
+ * - A directory with a follow_link method never calls lookup
+ * - It is possible in ->open to competely change which underlying
+ * filesystem, path, and inode the struct file refers to.
+ * - A dcache entry with DCACHE_UNHASHED clear and pprev set
+ * appares hashed (and thus valid) to the dcache.
+ *
+ * To give each network namespace it's own /proc/net directory
+ * in a manner transparent to user space (and not requiring /proc)
+ * be remounted we do the following things:
+ *
+ * Keep a different dentry tree for each network namespace under
+ * /proc/net.
+ *
+ * Have the root of the /proc/net dentry tree be a ``unhashed''
+ * dentry with it's root pointing at the /proc dentry. Making
+ * it appear in parallel with the normal /proc/net.
+ *
+ * Redirect all opens of the normal /proc/net to the one appropriate
+ * for the opening process in ->open.
+ *
+ * Redirect all directory traversals onto the appropriate /proc/net
+ * with a follow_link method.
+ *
+ * Wrap all other applicable inode operations so they appear to
+ * happen not on the normal /proc/net but on the network namespace
+ * specific one.
+ *
+ * Currently we can use a bind mount inside a network namespace
+ * to /proc/net visible to processes outside that network namespace.
+ * Long term /proc/net should migrate to /proc/<pid>/net removing
+ * the need for the bind mount for monitoring processes.
