Add init_llist_node for lock-less list nodes in struct net in
setup_net(), so we can test if a node is on a list or not.

Fixes: d6b3358a2813 ("llist: add interface to check if a node is on a
list.")
No Fixes tag is needed because we didn't have a need to
test if net is queued for destruction.
I know the original patch wasn't buggy.
This tag is just for the stable backport version hint.
In another thread, Eric Dumazet recommended Fixes tag for patches for "stable":
