net: add exit_batch_rtnl() method

Many (struct pernet_operations)->exit_batch() methods have
to acquire rtnl.

In presence of rtnl mutex pressure, this makes cleanup_net()
very slow.

This patch adds a new exit_batch_rtnl() method to reduce
number of rtnl acquisitions from cleanup_net().

exit_batch_rtnl() handlers are called while rtnl is locked,
and devices to be killed can be queued in a list provided
as their second argument.

A single unregister_netdevice_many() is called right
before rtnl is released.

exit_batch_rtnl() handlers are called before ->exit() and
->exit_batch() handlers.
