Merge branch 'rtnl-rcu'

Pedro Tammela says:

====================
net: rtnl: introduce rcu_replace_pointer_rtnl

Introduce the rcu_replace_pointer_rtnl helper to lockdep check rtnl lock
rcu replacements, alongside the already existing helpers.

Patch 2 uses the new helper in the rtnl_unregister_* functions.

Originally this change was part of the P4TC series, as it's a recurrent
pattern there, but since it has a use case in mainline we are pushing it
separately.
