netlink: kconfig: move mmap i/o into netlink kconfig
Currently, in menuconfig, Netlink's new mmaped IO is the very first entry under the ``Networking support'' item and comes even before ``Networking options'': [ ] Netlink: mmaped IO Networking options ---> ... Lets move this into ``Networking options'' under netlink's Kconfig, since this might be more appropriate. Introduced by commit ccdfcc398 (``netlink: mmaped netlink: ring setup'').
