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.
