net: Allow fib_rule_unregister to batch
Refactor the code so fib_rules_register always takes a template instead
of the actual fib_rules_ops structure that will be used.  This is
required for network namespace support so 2 out of the 3 callers already
do this, it allows the error handling to be made common, and it allows
fib_rules_unregister to free the template for hte caller.

Modify fib_rules_unregister to use call_rcu instead of syncrhonize_rcu
to allw multiple namespaces to be cleaned up in the same rcu grace
period.
