netlink: add netlink_dump_control structure for netlink_dump_start()
Davem considers that the argument list of this interface is getting
out of control. This patch tries to address this issue following
his proposal:
struct netlink_dump_control c = { .dump = dump, .done = done, ... };
netlink_dump_start(..., &c);
Suggested by David S. Miller.
