There are two genetlink headers net/genetlink.h and linux/genetlink.h
This is similar to netlink.h, but for netlink.h both contain good
amount of code. For genetlink.h the linux/ version is leftover
from when uAPI headers were split out, with 10 lines of code.
Move those lines into other appropriate headers and delete
linux/genetlink.h. I occasionally open the wrong header,
newcomers probably do that all the time.
