Ziyang Xuan 63b7c2ebcc net/af_packet: registration process optimization in packet_init()
Now, register_pernet_subsys() and register_netdevice_notifier() are both
after sock_register(). It can create PF_PACKET socket and process socket
once sock_register() successfully. It is possible PF_PACKET socket is
creating but register_pernet_subsys() and register_netdevice_notifier()
are not registered yet. Thus net->packet.sklist_lock and net->packet.sklist
will be accessed without initialization that is done in packet_net_init().
Although this is a low probability scenario.

Move register_pernet_subsys() and register_netdevice_notifier() to the
front in packet_init(). Correspondingly, adjust the unregister process
in packet_exit().
