ipv4: Namespacify IPv4 address GC.
Each IPv4 address could have a lifetime, which is useful for DHCP, and GC is periodically executed as check_lifetime_work. check_lifetime() does the actual GC under RTNL. 1. Acquire RTNL 2. Iterate inet_addr_lst 3. Remove IPv4 address if expired 4. Release RTNL Namespacifying the GC is required for per-netns RTNL, but using the per-netns hash table will shorten the time on the hash bucket iteration under RTNL. Let's add per-netns GC work and use the per-netns hash table. Reviewed-by:Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by:
