====================
net: fixes for device unregistration
Test script from Eric W. Biederman can catch a problem
where packets from backlog are processed long after the last
synchronize_net call. This can be reproduced after few tests
if commit 381c759d9916 ("ipv4: Avoid crashing in ip_error")
is reverted for the test. Incoming packets do not hold
reference to device but even if they do, subsystems do not
expect packets to fly during and after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER
event.
The first fix has the cost of netif_running check in fast path.
The second fix calls rcu_read_lock while local IRQ is disabled,
I hope this is not against the rules.
