[NETLINK]: cb_lock does not needs ref count on sk

Here is a little optimisation for the cb_lock used by netlink_dump.
While fixing that race earlier, I noticed that the reference count
held by cb_lock is completely useless.  The reason is that in order
to obtain the protection of the reference count, you have to take
the cb_lock.  But the only way to take the cb_lock is through
dereferencing the socket.

That is, you must already possess a reference count on the socket
before you can take advantage of the reference count held by cb_lock.
As a corollary, we can remve the reference count held by the cb_lock.
