Revert "genl: Add genlmsg_new_unicast() for unicast message allocation"

This reverts commit bb9b18f ("genl: Add genlmsg_new_unicast() for unicast message allocation")'. Nothing wrong with it; its no longer needed since this was only for mmapped netlink support. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
