This patch starts to convert pernet_subsys, registered
from pure initcalls.

Since net_ns_init() is the only pure initcall in net subsystem,
and there is no early initcalls; the pernet subsys, it registers,
is the first in pernet_operations list. So, we start with it.

net_ns_ops::net_ns_net_init/net_ns_net_init, methods use only
ida_simple_* functions, which are not need a synchronization.

So it's safe to execute them in parallel with any other
pernet_operations, and thus we convert net_ns_ops to pernet_sys type.
