The attached patch revert Pavel's orginal patch from 2.6.23-mm1. 
It should work fine with net-2.6 too.

This patch reverts the patch sent by Pavel Emilyanov
that introduced __net_init/__net_exit/__net_initdata defines
to save some memory when CONFIG_NET_NS=n.

http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg43310.html

When CONFIG_NET_NS=n, this later patch causes an oops when a 
netns-aware module is loaded after boot. When initialized the 
module tries to register its pernet operations and add them in 
the pernet_list. Unfortunately this list is corrupted as its 
first entries have been freed at the end of the boot sequence.
