Right now the core vsock module is the owner of the proto family. This
means there's nothing preventing the transport module from unloading if
there are open sockets, which results in a panic. Fix that by allowing
the transport to be the owner, which will refcount it properly.

Includes version bump to 1.0.1.0-k

Passes checkpatch this time, I swear...

Please do not explicitly CC: stable for networking submissions, instead please
just ask me to queue it up for -stable submission since I handle networking
-stable myself.

Applied, thanks.
