flush_all_backlogs() is called from unregister_netdevice_many_notify() as part of netdevice dismantles. This is currently called under RTNL, and can last up to 50 ms on busy hosts. There is no reason to hold RTNL at this stage, if our caller is cleanup_net() : netns are no more visible, devices are in NETREG_UNREGISTERING state and no other thread could mess our state while RTNL is temporarily released. In order to provide isolation, this patch provides a separate 'net_todo_list' for cleanup_net().

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.
