Alexey Dobriyan 6af2d5fff2 netns: fix net_generic() "id - 1" bloat
net_generic() function is both a) inline and b) used ~600 times.

It has the following code inside

		...
	ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1];
		...

"id" is never compile time constant so compiler is forced to subtract 1.
And those decrements or LEA [r32 - 1] instructions add up.

We also start id'ing from 1 to catch bugs where pernet sybsystem id
is not initialized and 0. This is quite pointless idea (nothing will
work or immediate interference with first registered subsystem) in
general but it hints what needs to be done for code size reduction.

Namely, overlaying allocation of pointer array and fixed part of
structure in the beginning and using usual base-0 addressing.

Ids are just cookies, their exact values do not matter, so lets start
with 3 on x86_64.

Code size savings (oh boy): -4.2 KB

As usual, ignore the initial compiler stupidity part of the table.

/*
* Generic net pointers are to be used by modules to put some private
* stuff on the struct net without explicit struct net modification
*
* The rules are simple:
* 1. set pernet_operations->id. After register_pernet_device you
* will have the id of your private pointer.
* 2. set pernet_operations->size to have the code allocate and free
* a private structure pointed to from struct net.
* 3. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
* 4. do not try to have any private reference on the net_generic object.
*
* After accomplishing all of the above, the private pointer can be
* accessed with the net_generic() call.
