This replaces all instances of lock_kernel in x25
with lock_sock, taking care to release the socket
lock around sleeping functions (sock_alloc_send_skb
and skb_recv_datagram). It is not clear whether
this is a correct solution, but it seem to be what
other protocols do in the same situation.
Includes a fix suggested by Eric Dumazet.

With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a
few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even
there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do
about them, this patch illustrates one of the options:
Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig,
and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets
disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL
code itself is compiled out.
The one exception is file locking, which is practically always
enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces
CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd
mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c.

Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
good basis for further re-structuring.
The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
"depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.
Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
out where they belongs.
