Subject: [PATCH 4.8 04/45] net: check dead netns for peernet2id_alloc()

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@...il.com>


[ Upstream commit cfc44a4d147ea605d66ccb917cc24467d15ff867 ]

Andrei reports we still allocate netns ID from idr after we destroy
it in cleanup_net().

cleanup_net():
  ...
  idr_destroy(&net->netns_ids);
  ...
  list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
    ops_exit_list(ops, &net_exit_list);
      -> rollback_registered_many()
        -> rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb()
         -> rtnl_fill_ifinfo()
           -> peernet2id_alloc()

After that point we should not even access net->netns_ids, we
should check the death of the current netns as early as we can in
peernet2id_alloc().

For net-next we can consider to avoid sending rtmsg totally,
it is a good optimization for netns teardown path.

Fixes: 0c7aecd4bde4 ("netns: add rtnl cmd to add and get peer netns ids")
