Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] net: Fix oops on state free after lwt module unload

This patchset fixes an oops in lwtstate_free and a memory leak that
would otherwise be exposed by ensuring that references are taken on
modules that need to stay around to clean up lwt state. To faciliate
this all ops that implement destroy_state and that can be configured
to build as a module are changed specify the owner module in the
ops. The intersection of those two sets is just ila at the moment.
