netdev: prevent accessing NAPI instances from another namespace

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2106770

commit d1cacd7 upstream.

The NAPI IDs were not fully exposed to user space prior to the netlink
API, so they were never namespaced. The netlink API must ensure that
at the very least NAPI instance belongs to the same netns as the owner
of the genl sock.

napi_by_id() can become static now, but it needs to move because of
dev_get_by_napi_id().

Fixes: 1287c1a ("netdev-genl: Support setting per-NAPI config values")
Fixes: 27f91aa ("netdev-genl: Add netlink framework functions for napi")
