Subject: net: Simplfy default_device_exit and improve batching.
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~9833^2~3968^2~119
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e008b5fc8dc7f46d9904001c7a2155eb1e7d35ab;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

net: Simplfy default_device_exit and improve batching.

- Defer dellink to net_cleanup() allowing for batching.
- Fix comment.
- Use for_each_netdev_safe again as dev_change_net_namespace touches
  at most one network device (unlike veth dellink).
