[PATCH] ipv4: in new netns initialize sysctls in net.ipv4.conf.* with defaults

Currently initial net.ipv4.conf.all.* and net.ipv4.conf.default.* are
copied from init network namespace because static structures are used
for init_net. This makes no sense because new netns might be created
from any netns. This patch makes private copy also for init netns if
network namespaces are enabled. Other sysctls in net.ipv4 and net.ipv6
already initialized with default values at namespace creation.
