/*
* 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.
