net: add MODULE_ALIAS_NET_PF_PROTO_NAME

The MODULE_ALAIS_NET_PF macro set is missing a variant that allows for the appending of an arbitrary string to the net-pf-<x>-proto-<y> base. while MODULE_ALIAS_NET_PF_PROTO_NAME_TYPE allows an appending of a numerical type, we need to be able to append a generic string to support generic netlink families that have neither a fix numberical protocol nor type number Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <[email protected]> CC: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> CC: David Miller <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
