    net: make unregister netdev warning timeout configurable · 5aa3afe1
    Dmitry Vyukov authored
    netdev_wait_allrefs() issues a warning if refcount does not drop to 0
    after 10 seconds. While 10 second wait generally should not happen
    under normal workload in normal environment, it seems to fire falsely
    very often during fuzzing and/or in qemu emulation (~10x slower).
    At least it's not possible to understand if it's really a false
    positive or not. Automated testing generally bumps all timeouts
    to very high values to avoid flake failures.
    Add net.core.netdev_unregister_timeout_secs sysctl to make
    the timeout configurable for automated testing systems.
    Lowering the timeout may also be useful for e.g. manual bisection.
    The default value matches the current behavior.
