[ Upstream commit 1b7fdc702c031134c619b74c4f311c590e50ca3d ]

rtnl_net_debug_init() registers rtnl_net_debug_net_ops by
register_pernet_device() but calls unregister_pernet_subsys()
in case register_netdevice_notifier() fails.

It corrupts pernet_list because first_device is updated in
register_pernet_device() but not unregister_pernet_subsys().

Let's fix it by calling register_pernet_subsys() instead.

The _subsys() one fits better for the use case because it keeps
the notifier alive until default_device_exit_net(), giving it
more chance to test NETDEV_UNREGISTER.

Fixes: 03fa53485659 ("rtnetlink: Add ASSERT_RTNL_NET() placeholder for netdev notifier.")

<title>dev: Hold rtnl_net_lock() for dev_ifsioc().</title>

Basically, dev_ifsioc() operates on the passed single netns (except
for netdev notifier chains with lower/upper devices for which we will
need more changes).

Let's hold rtnl_net_lock() for dev_ifsioc().

Now that NETDEV_CHANGENAME is always triggered under rtnl_net_lock()
of the device's netns. (do_setlink() and dev_ifsioc())

kernel test robot reported section mismatch in rtnl_net_debug_exit().

  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: rtnl_net_debug_exit+0x20 (section: .exit.text) -&gt; rtnl_net_debug_net_ops (section: .init.data)

rtnl_net_debug_exit() uses rtnl_net_debug_net_ops() that is annotated
as __net_initdata, but this file is always built-in.

Let's remove rtnl_net_debug_exit().

The global and per-netns netdev notifier depend on RTNL, and its
dependency is not so clear due to nested calls.

Let's add a placeholder to place ASSERT_RTNL_NET() for each event.
