    net: NETDEV_UNREGISTER_PERNET -> NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH · a5ee1551

    The motivation for an additional notifier in batched netdevice
    notification (rt_do_flush) only needs to be called once per batch not
    once per namespace.
    
    For further batching improvements I need a guarantee that the
    netdevices are unregistered in order allowing me to unregister an all
    of the network devices in a network namespace at the same time with
    the guarantee that the loopback device is really and truly
    unregistered last.
    
    Additionally it appears that we moved the route cache flush after
    the final synchronize_net, which seems wrong and there was no
    explanation.  So I have restored the original location of the final
    synchronize_net.
