Ok, here's one try. I also updated the list_add() calls introduced
in commit "ipsec: Restore larval states and socket policies in
dump".

Same warning still applies: only compile tested.

We should probably do similar fix for the SPD dumping. I can make
a patch for that later today.

ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump list

Based on Herbert Xu's patch and idea. Improved the original patch
to apply cleanly and modified iteration code to be more readable
by using a common struct for entries in all list.

As it is we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that states
don't go away while dumpers go to sleep.  It's much easier if
we just put the dumpers themselves on the list since they can't
go away while they're going.

I've also changed the order of addition on new states to prevent
a never-ending dump.

Finally the obsolete last optimisation is now gone.
