Subject: [PATCH 1/5][NETNS] Make the init/exit hooks checks outside the loop

From: Pavel Emelyanov <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2007 22:23:35 +0300

When the new pernet something (subsys, device or operations) is
being registered, the init callback is to be called for each
namespace, that currently exitst in the system. During the
unregister, the same is to be done with the exit callback.

However, not every pernet something has both calls, but the
check for the appropriate pointer to be not NULL is performed
inside the for_each_net() loop.

This is (at least) strange, so tune this.
