Having family in struct genl_info is quite useful. It cuts
down the number of arguments which need to be passed to
helpers which already take struct genl_info.

Netlink GET implementations must currently juggle struct genl_info
and struct netlink_callback, depending on whether they were called
from doit or dumpit.

Add genl_info to the dump state and populate the fields.
This way implementations can simply pass struct genl_info around.

Only three families use info-&gt;userhdr today and going forward
we discourage using fixed headers in new families.
So having the pointer to user header in struct genl_info
is an overkill. Compute the header pointer at runtime.

Add helpers which take/release the genl mutex based
on family-&gt;parallel_ops. Remove the separation between
handling of ops in locked and parallel families.

Future patches would make the duplicated code grow even more.

A new function netlink_release is added in netlink_sock to store the
protocol's release function. This is called when the socket is deleted.
This can be supplied by the protocol via the release function in
netlink_kernel_cfg. This is being added for the NETLINK_CONNECTOR
protocol, so it can free it's data when socket is deleted.

Currently, if cmd in the split ops array is of lower value than the
previous one, genl_validate_ops() continues to do the checks as if
the values are equal. This may result in non-obvious WARN_ON() hit in
these check.

Instead, check the incorrect ordering explicitly and put a WARN_ON()
in case it is broken.
