+ * 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.
