Its necessary because the cache needs to be flushed on netns exit
and this is only allowed while its not in use anymore.

I don't see anything in this series actually making sure nothing
hits the cache on exit though. Am I missing something?

Additionally (I might have missed a following patch moving it
out though) this doesn't belong in the netns exit path:

void nf_conntrack_cleanup(struct net *net)
{
	rcu_assign_pointer(ip_ct_attach, NULL);
...
	rcu_assign_pointer(nf_ct_destroy, NULL);
