[PATCH 1/14][NETNS]: Introduce the net-subsys id generator.

Thu Apr 10 08:01:09 PDT 2008


To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to
address them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs
generator for pernet subsystems. They will be used in the
next patches.

Since it will be used by devices only (tun and vlan), I make
it resemble the register_pernet_device functionality.

The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the
init callback to make this id available in this callback.
