netlink: hide struct module parameter in netlink_kernel_create

Browse Source 
This patch defines netlink_kernel_create as a wrapper function of
__netlink_kernel_create to hide the struct module *me parameter
(which seems to be THIS_MODULE in all existing netlink subsystems).

Suggested by David S. Miller.
