lsof does not support mount namespaces of Linux.
Instead you just get alof of (stat: No such file or directory)
outputs.

Fixing this requires reworking the source to use openat() to
still have access to /proc when in a differn't namespace.

Only works as root (CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

Patch attached.

Cheers,

Shawn,

Thank you for the patch.

I just got back from an extended trip, so I
won't be able to look at this for a while.
