[NETNS]: Don't panic on creating the namespace's loopback
When the loopback device is failed to initialize inside the new namespaces, panic() is called. Do not do it when the namespace in question is not the init_net. Plus cleanup the error path a bit. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
