rtnetlink: add reference counting to prevent module unload while dump is in progress
I don't see what prevents rmmod (unregister_all is called) while a dump
is active.
Even if we'd add rtnl lock/unlock pair to unregister_all (as done here),
thats not enough either as rtnl_lock is released right before the dump
process starts.
So this adds a refcount:
* acquire rtnl mutex
* bump refcount
* release mutex
* start the dump
... and make unregister_all remove the callbacks (no new dumps possible)
and then wait until refcount is 0.
