net: vxlan: do not use vxlan_net before checking event type
Jesse Brandeburg reported that commit acaf4e70997f caused a panic
when adding a network namespace while vxlan module was present in
the system:

Apparently loopback device is being registered first and thus we
receive an event notification when vxlan_net is not ready. Hence,
when we call net_generic() and request vxlan_net_id, we seem to
access garbage at that point in time. In setup_net() where we set
up a newly allocated network namespace, we traverse the list of
pernet ops ...
list_for_each_entry(ops, &pernet_list, list) {
error = ops_init(ops, net);
if (error < 0)
goto out_undo;
}
... and loopback_net_init() is invoked first here, so in the middle
of setup_net() we get this notification in vxlan. As currently we
only care about devices that unregister, move access through
net_generic() there. Fix is based on Cong Wang's proposal, but
only changes what is needed here. It sucks a bit as we only work
around the actual cure: right now it seems the only way to check if
a netns actually finished traversing all init ops would be to check
if it's part of net_namespace_list. But that I find quite expensive
each time we go through a notifier callback. Anyway, did a couple
of tests and it seems good for now.
Fixes: acaf4e70997f ("net: vxlan: when lower dev unregisters remove vxlan dev as well")
