Lorenzo Bianconi 5ce76fe1ee veth: rely on rtnl_dereference() instead of on rcu_dereference() in veth_set_xdp_features()
Fix the following kernel warning in veth_set_xdp_features routine
relying on rtnl_dereference() instead of on rcu_dereference():

=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
6.3.0-rc1-00144-g064d70527aaa #149 Not tainted
-----------------------------
drivers/net/veth.c:1265 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
1 lock held by ip/135:
(net/core/rtnetlink.c:6172)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
