Before this patch, nsid were protected by the rtnl lock. The goal of this patch is to be able to find a nsid without needing to hold the rtnl lock. The next patch will introduce a netlink socket option to listen to all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns where the socket is opened. Thus, it's important to call rtnl_net_notifyid() outside the spinlock, to avoid a recursive lock (nsid are notified via rtnl). This was the main reason of the previous patch.
