With this patch, a netlink message is sent each time a packet socket
is created or deleted.  The framework is generic, so it's easy to
add the notification for other kind of sockets.

Just curious what you want to use this for.

Some HW (custom FPGA, ASICs, NPUs) are able to offload packet
captures, so it is required to notify them.

I don't even want to hear about this until you have patches ready
to submit to fully support such a facility.

I'm not applying this patch, sorry.
