Get rid of .owner = THIS_MODULE in all nf_hook_ops, its not needed
anymore.

The only facility that used this was nfqueue but nowadays we zap all
queued entries that make use of a to-be-removed nf hook.

Followup commit simplifies nfqeue a bit (nf_queue_entry_get_refs can't
fail anymore) and gets rid of a bunch of unneeded rcu readlocks.
