tcp: Don't allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4.

We will soon introduce an optional per-netns ehash and access hash
tables via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row->hashinfo instead of &tcp_hashinfo
in most places.

It could harm the fast path because dereferences of two fields in net
and tcp_death_row might incur two extra cache line misses.  To save one
dereference, let's place tcp_death_row back in netns_ipv4 and fetch
hashinfo via net->ipv4.tcp_death_row"."hashinfo.

Note tcp_death_row was initially placed in netns_ipv4, and commit
fbb82952 ("tcp: allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4")
changed it to a pointer so that we can fire TIME_WAIT timers after freeing
net.  However, we don't do so after commit 04c494e6

 ("Revert "tcp/dccp:
get rid of inet_twsk_purge()""), so we need not define tcp_death_row as a
pointer.

Also, we move refcount_dec_and_test(&tw_refcount) from tcp_sk_exit() to
tcp_sk_exit_batch() as a debug check.
