Hi all,

When a netlink_route socket was created, the nlk->cb_mutex is get through 
nl_table[NETLINK_ROUTE].cb_mutex which is the rtnl_mutex.


So all the netlink_route dump operation can contend for each other (ip l, ip a, 
ip r, tc ls). It will also contend with other RTM_NEW/DEL operations.


So there can be a good way for each msgtype have their own mutex for dump 
operations?
