patch 1 & 2 suppress unwanted memory allocation for net->gen->ptr[].

patch 3 ~ 6 move part of netns initialisation to prenet_init() that
do not reqruire pernet_ops_rwsem.

  l2tp: Don't assign net->gen->ptr[] for pppol2tp_net_ops.
  net: Don't register pernet_operations if only one of id or size is
    specified.
  net: Initialise net->passive once in preinit_net().

[PATCH v1 net-next 1/6] l2tp: Don't assign net->gen->ptr[] for pppol2tp_net_ops.

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

Commit fd558d186df2 ("l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and
ppp parts") converted net->gen->ptr[pppol2tp_net_id] in l2tp_ppp.c to
net->gen->ptr[l2tp_net_id] in l2tp_core.c.

Now the leftover wastes one entry of net->gen->ptr[] in each netns.

Let's avoid the unwanted allocation.

[PATCH v1 net-next 2/6] net: Don't register pernet_operations if only one of id or size is specified.

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

We can allocate per-netns memory for struct pernet_operations by specifying
id and size.

register_pernet_operations() assigns an id to pernet_operations and later
ops_init() allocates the specified size of memory as net->gen->ptr[id].

If id is missing, no memory is allocated.  If size is not specified,
pernet_operations just wastes an entry of net->gen->ptr[] for every netns.

net_generic is useful only when both id and size are specified, so let's
ensure that.

While we are at it, we add const to both fields.

[PATCH v1 net-next 3/6] net: Initialise net->passive once in preinit_net().

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

When initialising the root netns, we set net->passive in setup_net().

However, we do it twice for non-root netns in copy_net_ns() and
setup_net().

This is because we could bypass setup_net() in copy_net_ns() if
down_read_killable() fails.

preinit_net() is a better place to put such an operation.

Let's initialise net->passive in preinit_net().

[PATCH v1 net-next 4/6] net: Call preinit_net() without pernet_ops_rwsem.

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

When initialising the root netns, we call preinit_net() under
pernet_ops_rwsem.

However, the operations in preinit_net() do not require pernet_ops_rwsem.

Also, we don't hold it for preinit_net() when initialising non-root netns.

To be consistent, let's call preinit_net() without pernet_ops_rwsem in
net_ns_init().

[PATCH v1 net-next 6/6] net: Initialise net.core sysctl defaults in preinit_net().

[Kuniyuki Iwashima]

Commit 7c3f1875c66f ("net: move somaxconn init from sysctl code")
introduced net_defaults_ops to make sure that net.core sysctl knobs
are always initialised even if CONFIG_SYSCTL is disabled.

Such operations better fit preinit_net() added for a similar purpose
by commit 6e77a5a4af05 ("net: initialize net->notrefcnt_tracker earlier").

Let's initialise the sysctl defaults in preinit_net().

I'd write as:

or

	if (WARN_ON(!!ops->id ^ !!ops->size))

but not 100% sure if it's idiomatic or just my preference..

Actually I wrote the latter first so will use it in v2.
Just not confident about which was easier to read.
