xfrm: fix rcu usage in xfrm_get_type_offload
request_module can sleep, thus we cannot hold rcu_read_lock() while calling it. The function also jumps back and takes rcu_read_lock() again (in xfrm_state_get_afinfo()), resulting in an imbalance. This codepath is triggered whenever a new offloaded state is created.
