Two synchronize_net() calls are currently done while holding RTNL. This is source of RTNL contention in workloads adding and deleting many network namespaces per second, because synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() can use 60+ ms in some cases. For cleanup_net() use, temporarily release RTNL while calling the last synchronize_net(). This should be safe, because devices are no longer visible to other threads at this point. In any case, the new netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() infrastructure that we are adding should allow to fix potential issues, with a combination of a per-device mutex and dev->reg_state awareness.
