netlink: Call cb->done from a worker thread 

The cb->done interface expects to be called in process context.
This was broken by the netlink RCU conversion.  This patch fixes
it by adding a worker struct to make the cb->done call where
necessary.

Fixes: 21e4902aea ("netlink: Lockless lookup with RCU grace...")
