* stuff on the struct net without explicit struct net modification

* The rules are simple:
- * 1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get the id
- * of your private pointer;
- * 2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the struct
- * net (most preferably this should be done in the ->init callback
- * of the ops registered);
+ * 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.
