Merge branch 'rtnetlink-refactor-rtnl_-new-del-set-link-for-per-netns-rtnl'

Kuniyuki Iwashima says:

====================
rtnetlink: Refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() for per-netns RTNL.

This is a prep for the next series where we will push RTNL down to
rtnl_{new,del,set}link().

That means, for example, __rtnl_newlink() is always under RTNL, but
rtnl_newlink() has a non-RTNL section.

As a prerequisite for per-netns RTNL, we will move netns validation
(and RTNL-independent validations if possible) to that section.

rtnl_link_ops and rtnl_af_ops will be protected with SRCU not to
depend on RTNL.

Changes:
  v2:
    * Add Eric's Reviewed-by to patch 1-4,6,8-11, (no tag on 5,7,12-14)

    * Patch 13
      * Newly added as prep for patch 14
