From: Zhengchao Shao <shaozhengchao@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5b22f62724a0a09e00d301abf5b57b0c12be8a16 upstream.
When bulk delete command is received in the rtnetlink_rcv_msg function,
if bulk delete is not supported, module_put is not called to release
the reference counting. As a result, module reference count is leaked.
Fixes: a6cec0bcd342 ("net: rtnetlink: add bulk delete support flag")
