[v2,01/11] netlink: add reference of module in netlink_dump_start

Commit Message

Gao feng Sept. 26, 2012, 8:41 a.m. UTC

I get a panic when I use ss -a and rmmod inet_diag at the
same time.

it's because netlink_dump use inet_diag_dump witch function
belongs to module inet_diag.

I search the codes and find many modules have the same problem.
We need add reference of the module witch the cb->dump belongs
to.

Thanks for all help from Stephen,Jan,Eric and Steffen.
