Kernel panic - not syncing: kernel: panic_on_warn set ...

This is trigger as below:
          ns0                                    ns1
tun_set_iff() //dev is tun0
   tun->dev = dev
//ip link set tun0 netns ns1
                                       put_net() //ref is 0
__tun_chr_ioctl() //TUNGETDEVNETNS
   net = dev_net(tun->dev);
   open_related_ns(&net->ns, get_net_ns); //ns1
     get_net_ns()
        get_net() //addition on 0

Use maybe_get_net() in get_net_ns in case net's ref is zero to fix this

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
