net: Introduce read_pnet() and write_pnet() helpers
This patch introduces two helpers that deal with reading and writing
struct net pointers in various network structures.
Their implementation depends on CONFIG_NET_NS
For symmetry, both functions work with "struct net **pnet".
Their usage should reduce the number of #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS,
without adding many helpers for each network structure
that hold a "struct net *pointer"
