sounds fine with me. However, we can then also remove NETLINK_USERSOCK,
since IMHO it was intended for exactly this mode of operation.
Alternatively just hardwire a kernel socket for it, with a NULL rcv()
function.
Its just a placeholder, userspace would need to reserve numbers as well
to avoid conflicts. I'll add a patch to my patchset to remove it.
