Kirill Tkhai Nov. 20, 2017, 6:33 p.m. UTC 
This patch starts to convert pernet_subsys, registered
from core initcalls.

Methods sysctl_net_init() and sysctl_net_exit() initialize
net::sysctls table of a namespace.

pernet_operations::init()/exit() methods from the rest
of the list do not touch net::sysctls of strangers,
so it's safe to execute sysctl_pernet_ops's methods
in parallel with any other pernet_operations.
