gtp: annotate PDP lookups under RTNL

Browse source

The GTP PDP lookup helpers are shared by RCU-protected data and report
paths and RTNL-protected control paths such as gtp_genl_new_pdp(). The
helpers walk RCU hlists, but they do not currently pass the RTNL
condition for the control-path lookups.

Pass lockdep_rtnl_is_held() to the PDP hlist iterators. Existing
RCU-reader callers remain valid because the RCU-list macros also accept
an active RCU read-side section; the added condition only documents the
non-RCU protection already used by RTNL control paths.

This was found by our static analysis tool and then manually reviewed
against the current tree. The dynamic triage evidence is a
target-matched CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST warning; the change is limited
to documenting the existing protection contract.

This is a lockdep annotation cleanup. It does not change PDP lifetime or
hash updates.
