netfilter: batch synchronize_net calls during hook unregister
synchronize_net is expensive and slows down netns cleanup a lot.
We have two APIs to unregister a hook:
nf_unregister_net_hook (which calls synchronize_net())
and
nf_unregister_net_hooks (calls nf_unregister_net_hook in a loop)
Make nf_unregister_net_hook a wapper around new helper
__nf_unregister_net_hook, which unlinks the hook but does not free it.
Then, we can call that helper in nf_unregister_net_hooks and then
call synchronize_net() only once.
Andrey Konovalov reports this change improves syzkaller fuzzing speed at
least twice.
