This patch doesn't build. It fails like this:

`netlbl_netlink_exit' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: 
defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o
`netlbl_domhsh_exit' referenced in section `.init.text' of net/built-in.o: 
defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of net/built-in.o

I deleted the __exit and __init  for now so that the build procedes. But this 
needs to get fixed in next iteration.

Thanks,
