Eric Dumazet cac5e65e8a net: do not use rcu in rtnl_dump_ifinfo()
We did a failed attempt in the past to only use rcu in rtnl dump
operations (commit e67f88dd12 "net: dont hold rtnl mutex during
netlink dump callbacks")

Now that dumps are holding RTNL anyway, there is no need to also
use rcu locking, as it forbids any scheduling ability, like
GFP_KERNEL allocations that controlling path should use instead
of GFP_ATOMIC whenever possible.

This should fix following splat Cong Wang reported :

 [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
 3.19.0+ #805 Tainted: G        W

 include/linux/rcupdate.h:538 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section!

 other info that might help us debug this:

 rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
 2 locks held by ip/771:
  #0:  (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8182b8f4>] netlink_dump+0x21/0x26c
