genetlink: hold RCU in genlmsg_mcast()

[ Upstream commit 56440d7ec28d60f8da3bfa09062b3368ff9b16db ]

While running net selftests with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y I saw
one lockdep splat [1].

genlmsg_mcast() uses for_each_net_rcu(), and must therefore hold RCU.

Instead of letting all callers guard genlmsg_multicast_allns()
with a rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pair, do it in genlmsg_mcast().

This also means the @flags parameter is useless, we need to always use
GFP_ATOMIC.
