Make it possible to handle NULL being passed to the reference count helpers instead of forcing the caller to handle this. Afterwards we can nicely allow a cleanup guard to handle nsproxy freeing. Active reference count handling is not done in nsproxy_free() but rather in free_nsproxy() as nsproxy_free() is also called from setns() failure paths where a new nsproxy has been prepared but has not been marked as active via switch_task_namespaces().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
