[NETLINK]: Defer socket destruction a bit
In netlink_broadcast() we're sending shared skb's to netlink listeners when possible (saves some copying). This is OK, since we hold the only other reference to the skb. However, this implies that we must drop our reference on the skb, before allowing a receiving socket to disappear. Otherwise, the socket buffer accounting is disrupted. Signed-off-by: Tommy S.
