net: sched: flower: don't check for rtnl on head dereference Flower classifier only changes root pointer during init and destroy. Cls API implements reference counting for tcf_proto, so there is no danger of concurrent access to tp when it is being destroyed, even without protection provided by rtnl lock. Implement new function fl_head_dereference() to dereference tp->root without checking for rtnl lock. Use it in all flower function that obtain head pointer instead of rtnl_dereference().
