[PATCH RFC 02/48] netlink: Add compare function for netlink_table

[Gao feng]

As we know, netlink sockets can communicate with each other
only when they in the same net namespace. this works
well until we try to add namespace support for other
subsystems which use netlink.

Don't like ipv4,route table,it is not suited to make this
subsytems belongs to net namespace, Such as audit and crypto
subsystems,they are more suitable to user namespace.

So we must have the ability to make the netlink sockets in
same user namespace can communicate with each other.

This patch adds a new function pointer "compare" for
netlink_table, we can decide if the netlink sockets can
communicate with each other through this netlink_table
self-defined compare function.
