because cb->done is called by netlink_sock_destruct too,it's very usefully
when userspace program only send dump request to kernel without reading
data from kernel.

You can see the patch [11/11], THIS_MODULE in infiniband/core/cma.c
means module rdma_cm,but we call netlink_dump_start in infiniband/core/netlink.c

we should make sure the cb.moudle point to the module which cb.dump belongs to.
we can call netlink_dump_start to set cb->dump everywhere, so I think we still
need to pass struct module to the netlink_callback.

thanks for your comments!
