Subject: [PATCH RFC 01/25] net: Assign net to net_namespace_list in
 setup_net()

This patch merges two repeating pieces of code in one,
and they will live in setup_net() now.

It acts as cleanup even despite init_net_initialized
assignment is reordered with the linking of net now.
This variable is need for proc_net_init() called from:

start_kernel()->proc_root_init()->proc_net_init(),

which can't race with net_ns_init(), called from
initcall.
