net: netlink: remove the cb_mutex "injection" from netlink core

Browse Source 
Back in 2007, in commit af65bdfce9 ("[NETLINK]: Switch cb_lock spinlock
to mutex and allow to override it") netlink core was extended to allow
subsystems to replace the dump mutex lock with its own lock.

The mechanism was used by rtnetlink to take rtnl_lock but it isn't
sufficiently flexible for other users. Over the 17 years since
it was added no other user appeared. Since rtnetlink needs conditional
locking now, and doesn't use it either, axe this feature complete.
