Subject: [PATCH net 3/5] net: avoid UAF on deleted altname

Altnames are accessed under RCU (__dev_get_by_name())
but freed by kfree() with no synchronization point.

Because the name nodes don't hold a reference on the netdevice
either, take the heavier approach of inserting synchronization
points. Subsequent patch will remove the one added on device
deletion path.

Fixes: ff92741270bf ("net: introduce name_node struct to be used in hashlist")
