net: tipc: remove one synchronize_net() from tipc_nametbl_stop()
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()
