tipc_exit_net() is very slow and is abused by syzbot.

tipc_nametbl_stop() is called for each netns being dismantled.

Calling synchronize_net() right before freeing tn->nametbl
is a big hammer.

Replace this with kfree_rcu().

Note that RCU is not properly used here, otherwise
tn->nametbl should be cleared before the synchronize_net()
or kfree_rcu(), or even before the cleanup loop.

We might need to fix this at some point.

Also note tipc uses other synchronize_rcu() calls,
more work is needed to make tipc_exit_net() much faster.

List of remaining calls to synchronize_rcu()

  tipc_detach_loopback() (dev_remove_pack())
  tipc_bcast_stop()
  tipc_sk_rht_destroy()
