[PATCH net] rxrpc: Fix deadlock around release of dst cached on udp tunnel

AF_RXRPC sockets use UDP ports in encap mode.  This causes socket and dst
from an incoming packet to get stolen and attached to the UDP socket from
whence it is leaked when that socket is closed.

When a network namespace is removed, the wait for dst records to be cleaned
up happens before the cleanup of the rxrpc and UDP socket, meaning that the
wait never finishes.

Fix this by moving the rxrpc (and, by dependence, the afs) private
per-network namespace registrations to the device group rather than subsys
group.  This allows cached rxrpc local endpoints to be cleared and their
UDP sockets closed before we try waiting for the dst records.

The symptom is that lines looking like the following:

	unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free

get emitted at regular intervals after running something like the
referenced syzbot test.

Thanks to Vadim for tracking this down and work out the fix.
