net: Remove net_rwsem from {, un}register_netdevice_notifier() These functions take net_rwsem, while wireless_nlevent_flush() also takes it. But down_read() can't be taken recursive, because of rw_semaphore design, which prevents it to be occupied by only readers forever. Since we take pernet_ops_rwsem in {,un}register_netdevice_notifier(), net list can't change, so these down_read()/up_read() can be removed.
