Yes, I try to add reference of the module,but I can't find a proper
location to call module_get and module_put.
module_get should be called when userspace program use netlink to
send dump request to the kernel,and module_put should be called when
the dump is completed. I am right?
BUT the userspace program may only call netlink_sendmsg without call
netlink_recvmsg.so the reference of the module will be incorrect.

It's very easy to trigger this bug,
you can exec "while :; do ss -a ; done" in one terminal
and exec "while :; do rmmod tcp_diag && rmmod inet_diag; done"
in another terminal.
