A recent commit removed locking from netlink_diag_dump() but forgot
one error case.

=====================================
[ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
4.9.0-rc3+ #336 Not tainted
-------------------------------------
syz-executor/4018 is trying to release lock ([ 36.220068] nl_table_lock
) at:
[<ffffffff82dc8683>] netlink_diag_dump+0x1a3/0x250 net/netlink/diag.c:182
but there are no more locks to release!

other info that might help us debug this:
3 locks held by syz-executor/4018:
#0: [ 36.220068] (
sock_diag_mutex[ 36.220068] ){+.+.+.}
