Eric Dumazet b26ef81c46 drop_monitor: remove quadratic behavior
drop_monitor is using an unique list on which all netdevices in
the host have an element, regardless of their netns.

This scales poorly, not only at device unregister time (what I
caught during my netns dismantle stress tests), but also at packet
processing time whenever trace_napi_poll_hit() is called.

If the intent was to avoid adding one pointer in 'struct net_device'
then surely we prefer O(1) behavior.
