In commit 242d3a49a2a1 ("ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after ipv6_dev_notf")
I assumed NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_UNREGISTER are paired,
unfortunately, as reported by jeffy, netdev_wait_allrefs()
could rebroadcast NETDEV_UNREGISTER event until all refs are
gone.

We have to add an additional check to avoid this corner case.
For netdev_wait_allrefs() dev->reg_state is NETREG_UNREGISTERED,
for dev_change_net_namespace(), dev->reg_state is
NETREG_REGISTERED. So check for dev->reg_state != NETREG_UNREGISTERED.

Hi Cong Wang,

i don't know much about net core, maybe i'm misreading the code...but

i saw we are calling NETDEV_REGISTER in these cases:
1/ register_netdevice_notifier:
the paired unregister would be:
a) normal unregister: rollback_registered_many
b) the error path:
register_netdevice_notifier->rollback jump label

2/ register_netdevice:
the paired unregister would both be rollback_registered_many for 
normal/error cases

3/ dev_change_net_namespace:
the paired unregister is the one right before the register notify

i think we are handling all register notifies, but only unregister 
notify from rollback_registered_many now?

you are checking for NETREG_UNREGISTERED, so only filter out the 
unregistered after rollback_registered_many, so that indeed covers all 
cases :)
