ipmr: get rid of rwlocks
We need to get rid of rwlocks in networking stacks,
if read_lock() is (ab)used from softirq context.
As discussed recently [1], rwlock are unfair by design in this case,
and writers can starve and trigger soft lockups.
This series convert ipmr code (both IPv4 and IPv6 families)
to RCU and spinlocks.

v2: fixed two typos, and resent because patch 19/19
did not make it to patchwork.
