net: fix a lockdep rcu warning in __sk_dst_set()
__sk_dst_set() might be called while no state can be integrated in a rcu_dereference_check() condition. So use rcu_dereference_raw() to shutup lockdep warnings (if CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is set) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.
