Subject: [RTNETLINK 03/04]: rtnl_link API simplification

[RTNETLINK]: rtnl_link API simplification

All drivers need to unregister their devices in the module unload function.
While doing so they must hold the rtnl and atomically unregister the
rtnl_link ops as well. This makes the rtnl_link_unregister function that
takes the rtnl itself completely useless.

Provide default newlink/dellink functions, make __rtnl_link_unregister and
rtnl_link_unregister unregister all devices with matching rtnl_link_ops and
change the existing users to take advantage of that.

Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>
