rtnetlink: wait for unregistering devices in rtnl_link_unregister()
From: Cong Wang <cwang@twopensource.com> commit 50624c934db18ab90 (net: Delay default_device_exit_batch until no devices are unregistering) introduced rtnl_lock_unregistering() for default_device_exit_batch(). Same race could happen we when rmmod a driver which calls rtnl_link_unregister() as we call dev->destructor without rtnl lock. For long term, I think we should clean up the mess of netdev_run_todo() and net namespce exit code. Cc: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: David S.
