ip_tunnel: Support per-netns device unregistration.

Browse source 
ip_tunnel_delete_net() iterates ip_tunnel devices whose link_net
is dying and queues them for destruction.

The devices may reside in different netns.

Let's use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to support per-netns
device unregistration.

Even after ip_tunnel_delete_net() queues a cross-netns ip_tunnel
device, ip_tunnel_changelink(), ip_tunnel_dellink(), and
ip_tunnel_ctl() could be called concurrently for it (once RTNL is
removed).  In such a case, __rtnl_net_unlock() will perform the
unregistration.

Also, ip_tunnel_ctl() needs to check check_net(t->net), otherwise
it could create a new dev in dying netns after ip_tunnel_delete_net().

In the example below, we can see the fallback tunnel device (gre0)
and the cross-netns device (gre1) are unregistered by different
processes:

  # bpftrace -e '#include <linux/netdevice.h>
  kprobe:ip_tunnel_uninit {
      $dev = (struct net_device *)arg0;
      printf("PID: %d | DEV: %s%s\n", pid, $dev->name, kstack());
  }
  kprobe:ipgre_exit_rtnl {
      printf("PID: %d%s\n", pid, kstack());
  }' &

  # ip netns add ns1
  # ip netns add ns2
  # ip -n ns1 link add name gre1 link-netns ns2 \
    type gre local 192.168.0.1 remote 192.168.1.1
  # ip netns del ns2
