WANG Cong 1215e51eda ipv4: fix a deadlock in ip_ra_control ...

Similar to commit 87e9f03159
("ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path"),
there is a deadlock scenario for IP_ROUTER_ALERT too:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(rtnl_mutex);
                               lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
                               lock(rtnl_mutex);
  lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);

Fix this by always locking RTNL first on all setsockopt() paths.

Note, after this patch ip_ra_lock is no longer needed either.
