net: Add rtnl_lock_killable()
rtnl_lock() is widely used mutex in kernel. Some of kernel code does memory allocations under it. In case of memory deficit this may invoke OOM killer, but the problem is a killed task can't exit if it's waiting for the mutex. This may be a reason of deadlock and panic. This patch adds a new primitive, which responds on SIGKILL, and it allows to use it in the places, where we don't want to sleep forever.
