Subject: [PATCH 29/30] net: Add missing annotation for netlink_walk_start()

Sparse reports a warning at netlink_walk_start()

warning: context imbalance in netlink_walk_start()
	 - wrong count at exit

The root cause is the missing annotation at netlink_walk_start()
A close look at rhashtable_walk_start_check()
shows that an __acquires(RCU) is needed here.

Add the missing __acquires(RCU) annotation
