net: Use rtnl_net_dev_lock() in register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net().

Breno Leitao reported the splat below. [0]

Commit 65161fb ("net: Fix dev_net(dev) race in
unregister_netdevice_notifier_dev_net().") added the
DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(), assuming that the netdev is not
registered before register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net().

But the assumption was simply wrong.

Let's use rtnl_net_dev_lock() in register_netdevice_notifier_dev_net().
