Eric Dumazet e67f88dd12 net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink
dump callbacks.

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making
good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations.

This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow
on a workload adding/removing network devices in background.

All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does
roughly a revert of commits :

1c2d670f36 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks
6313c1e099 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed.

It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu
read section. I renamed it to phonet_route_get_rcu()
