[NET]: Network Event Notifier Mechanism.

This patch uses notifier blocks to implement a network event
notifier mechanism.

Clients register their callback function by calling
register_netevent_notifier() like this:

static struct notifier_block nb = {
        .notifier_call = my_callback_func
};

...

register_netevent_notifier(&nb);
