recent_proc_net_exit() removes the proc entries of all tables with
recent_lock held. remove_proc_entry() waits until nobody calls into the
entry anymore, and reading one of them takes recent_lock in
recent_seq_start() while procfs has the entry pinned. So when a reader
gets there while the network namespace goes away, the exit path sleeps
with a spinlock held and bh disabled, waiting for a reader that spins
on that very lock:

Tables are added and removed with recent_mutex held and that's also
what recent_mt_destroy() looks at ->xt_recent under. Nothing that runs
with a proc entry pinned takes it. So take recent_mutex instead.
