Cover letter [NETLINK 00/04]: Consistent dump callback locking
These patches change netlink to provide consistent locking in dump callbacks. Currently the first invocation of the callbacks happens under the queue processing mutex and ->cb_lock of the dumping socket, further invocations only under cb_lock. The first patch replaces the cb_lock spinlock by a mutex and allows netlink_kernel_create users to override it with a subsystem specific mutex, the second patch makes use of this for rtnetlink. The third and fourth patches remove some locking that is not needed anymore.
Please apply, thanks.
