Subject: [RFC PATCH linux 0/2] Optimize network interfaces creation

When a lot of netdevices are created, one of the bottleneck is the creation
of proc entries. This serie aims to accelerate this part.

The first patch only prepares the second one.

I'm not sure against which tree this patch should be done. I've done it against
linux.git.
