net: remove [un]register_pernet_gen_... and update the docs.
No that all of the callers have been updated to set fields in struct pernet_operations, and simplified to let the network namespace core handle the allocation and freeing of the storage for them, remove the surpurpflous methods and update the docs to the new style.

* stuff on the struct net without explicit struct net modification
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The rules are simple:
|
||||
* 1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get the id
|
||||
* of your private pointer;
|
||||
* 2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the struct
|
||||
* 1. set pernet_operations->id. After register_pernet_device you
|
||||
* will have the id of your private pointer.
|
||||
* 2. Either set pernet_operations->size (to have the code allocate and
|
||||
* free a private structure pointed to from struct net ) or
|
||||
* call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the struct
|
||||
* net (most preferably this should be done in the ->init callback
|
||||
* of the ops registered);
|
||||
* 3. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
