lianhui reports that when MPLS fails to register the sysctl table
under new location (during device rename) the old pointers won't
get overwritten and may be freed again (double free).

Handle this gracefully. The best option would be unregistering
the MPLS from the device completely on failure, but unfortunately
mpls_ifdown() can fail. So failing fully is also unreliable.

Another option is to register the new table first then only
remove old one if the new one succeeds. That requires more
code, changes order of notifications and two tables may be
visible at the same time.

sysctl point is not used in the rest of the code - set to NULL
on failures and skip unregister if already NULL.

Now that the 32bit UP oddity is gone and 32bit uses always a sequence
count, there is no need for the fetch_irq() variants anymore.

Convert to the regular interface.

<title>net: Use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() for stats fetch.</title>

On 32bit-UP u64_stats_fetch_begin() disables only preemption. If the
reader is in preemptible context and the writer side
(u64_stats_update_begin*()) runs in an interrupt context (IRQ or
softirq) then the writer can update the stats during the read operation.
This update remains undetected.

Use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() to ensure the stats fetch on 32bit-UP
are not interrupted by a writer. 32bit-SMP remains unaffected by this
change.

When building with automatic stack variable initialization, GCC 12
complains about variables defined outside of switch case statements.
Move the variable outside the switch, which silences the warning:

There are various problems related to netlink notifications for mpls route
changes in response to interfaces being deleted:
* delete interface of only nexthop
	DELROUTE notification is missing RTA_OIF attribute
* delete interface of non-last nexthop
	NEWROUTE notification is missing entirely
* delete interface of last nexthop
	DELROUTE notification is missing nexthop

All of these problems stem from the fact that existing routes are modified
in-place before sending a notification. Restructure mpls_ifdown() to avoid
changing the route in the DELROUTE cases and to create a copy in the
NEWROUTE case.
