tipc: fix suspicious RCU usage
When run tipcTS&tipcTC test suite, the following complaint appears: [ 56.926168] =============================== [ 56.926169] [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] [ 56.926171] 4.7.0-rc1+ #160 Not tainted [ 56.926173] ------------------------------- [ 56.926174] net/tipc/bearer.c:408 suspicious rcu_dereference_protected() usage!

Instead the proper usage should be that rcu_dereference_rtnl() is called here.
