net: Don't take rtnl_lock() in wireless_nlevent_flush() This function iterates over net_namespace_list and flushes the queue for every of them. What does this rtnl_lock() protects?! Since we may add skbs to net::wext_nlevents without rtnl_lock(), it does not protects us about queuers. It guarantees, two threads can't flush the queue in parallel, that can change the order, but since skb can be queued in any order, it doesn't matter, how many threads do this in parallel. In case of several threads, this will be even faster. So, we can remove rtnl_lock() here, as it was used for iteration over net_namespace_list only.
