Eric Dumazet 073862ba5d netns: fix net_alloc_generic()
When a new net namespace is created, we should attach to it a "struct
net_generic" with enough slots (even empty), or we can hit the following
BUG_ON() :

net_alloc_generic() should take into account the maximum index into the
ptr array, as a subsystem might use net_generic() anytime.

This also reduces number of reallocations in net_assign_generic()
