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 which the cb->dump belongs
to.

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

Change From v3:
change netlink_dump_start to inline,suggestion from Pablo and
Eric.

Change From v2:
delete netlink_dump_done,and call module_put in netlink_dump
and netlink_sock_destruct.
