Export netdev_name_node_lookup for use outside of net/core/dev.c. Prior to this __dev_get_by_name was used for both name collision detection and to retrieve a net device reference. We now want to allow a difference in behaviour between the two, hence exporting netdev_name_node_lookup. (It will be used in the next commits).
