ipmr: Convert ipmr_rtm_dumplink() to RCU.

Browse source

net->ipv4.mr_tables is updated under RTNL and can be read
safely under RCU.

Once created, the multicast route tables are not removed
until netns dismantle.

ipmr_rtm_dumplink() does not need RTNL protection for
ipmr_for_each_table() and ipmr_fill_table() if RCU is held.

Even if mrt->maxvif changes concurrently, ipmr_fill_vif()
returns true to continue dumping the next table.

Let's convert it to RCU.
