Subject: Please queue some netns bug fixes for stable

Hi, David


Please queue the following commits for -stable, all kernels < 3.12.

You backported the last one (from me) to 3.14 and 3.12, but for kernels < 3.12
we probably need all of these three:

commit 50624c934db18ab90aaea4908f60dd39aab4e6e5

    net: Delay default_device_exit_batch until no devices are unregistering v2

commit 5cde282938915f36a2e6769b51c24c4159654859
Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...ssion.com>

    net: Separate the close_list and the unreg_list v2

commit 200b916f3575bdf11609cb447661b8d5957b0bbf
Author: Cong Wang <cwang@...pensource.com>

    rtnetlink: wait for unregistering devices in rtnl_link_unregister()


AFAIK, all 3.x kernels are affected. Eric should know better than me here.

Thanks!
