    Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a
    racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have
    removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it.  We
    have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines
    or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to
    handle them.
    
    Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just
    drop the incoming packets.
