When under stress, cleanup_net() can have to dismantle netns in big numbers. ops_exit_list() currently calls many helpers [1] that have no schedule point, and we can end up with soft lockups, particularly on hosts with many cpus. Even for moderate amount of netns processed by cleanup_net() this patch avoids latency spikes. [1] Some of these helpers like fib_sync_up() and fib_sync_down_dev() are very slow because net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c uses host-wide hash tables, and ifindex is used as the only input of two hash functions. ifindexes tend to be the same for all netns (lo.ifindex==1 per instance) This will be fixed in a separate patch.
