Eric Dumazet 56440d7ec2 genetlink: hold RCU in genlmsg_mcast() ... While running net selftests with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y I saw one lockdep splat [1]. genlmsg_mcast() uses for_each_net_rcu(), and must therefore hold RCU. Instead of letting all callers guard genlmsg_multicast_allns() with a rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pair, do it in genlmsg_mcast(). This also means the @flags parameter is useless, we need to always use GFP_ATOMIC.
