From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Thomas Graf points out that I broke net/sched/ipt.c when I removed
__ipt_find_target_lock.  In fact, those routines don't need to keep the
lock held, so we can simplify them, and expose an interface
(ipt_find_target) which does module loading correctly for net/sched/ipt.c.

As Thomas points out, this also gets the module refcounts right.
