Paolo Abeni 04ced323ef Merge branch 'dev-hold-per-netns-rtnl-in-register-netdev'
Kuniyuki Iwashima says:

====================
dev: Hold per-netns RTNL in register_netdev().

Patch 1 adds rtnl_net_lock_killable() and Patch 2 uses it in
register_netdev() and converts it and unregister_netdev() to
per-netns RTNL.

With this and the netdev notifier series [0], ASSERT_RTNL_NET()
for NETDEV_REGISTER [1] wasn't fired on a simplest QEMU setup
like e1000 + x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
