This adds new pernet_operations::async flag to indicate operations, which ->init(), ->exit() and ->exit_batch() methods are allowed to be executed in parallel with the methods of any other pernet_operations. When there are only asynchronous pernet_operations in the system, net_mutex won't be taken for a net construction and destruction. Also, remove BUG_ON(mutex_is_locked()) from net_assign_generic() without replacing with the equivalent net_sem check, as there is one more lockdep assert below. v3: Add comment near net_mutex.
