That's ... a pretty complex scenario.

Looks like we have a race between destroying a network namespace, which
moves everything back into the init_ns and may have to rename objects
asynchronously (cleanup_net), with destroying the radio in hwsim that's
also asynchronous (destroy_radio).

Benjamin, would you be able to take a look at this? I'm preparing for a
trip and will leave Saturday for a week so I don't think I'll be able
to really dig into this before mid-March.
