Patch to implement the requested feature.

I'm in the process of packaging ipset for Fedora. The Fedora kernel already
includes the ipset kernel module, and we tend to always have recent enough
kernel versions so this part is well covered. In any case, the Fedora policies
don't allow packages to ship external kernel modules.

As such, I want to only build the userspace part of ipset: the tool, libs and
man page.

Attached patch allows a user to do just that by running the configure script
with the --with-kmod=no option.
