genetlink: hold read cb_lock during iteration of genl_fam_idr in genl_bind()
In genl_bind(), currently genl_lock and write cb_lock are taken for iteration of genl_fam_idr and processing of static values stored in struct genl_family. Take just read cb_lock for this task as it is sufficient to guard the idr and the struct against concurrent genl_register/unregister_family() calls. This will allow to run genl command processing in genl_rcv() and mnl_socket_setsockopt(.., NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, ..) in parallel.
