Subject: [PATCH] netlink: remove subscriptions check on notifier

The netlink URELEASE notifier doesn't notify for
sockets that have been used to receive multicast
but it should be called for such sockets as well
since they might _also_ be used for sending and
not solely for receiving multicast. We will need
that for nl80211 (generic netlink sockets) in the
future.
