Eric Dumazet ef8531b64c xfrm: fix RCU bugs
This patch reverts commit 56892261ed (xfrm: Use rcu_dereference_bh to
deference pointer protected by rcu_read_lock_bh), and fixes bugs
introduced in commit 418a99ac6a ( Replace rwlock on xfrm_policy_afinfo
with rcu )

1) We properly use RCU variant in this file, not a mix of RCU/RCU_BH

2) We must defer some writes after the synchronize_rcu() call or a reader
 can crash dereferencing NULL pointer.

3) Now we use the xfrm_policy_afinfo_lock spinlock only from process
context, we no longer need to block BH in xfrm_policy_register_afinfo()
and xfrm_policy_unregister_afinfo()

4) Can use RCU_INIT_POINTER() instead of rcu_assign_pointer() in
xfrm_policy_unregister_afinfo()

5) Remove a forward inline declaration (xfrm_policy_put_afinfo()),
  and also move xfrm_policy_get_afinfo() declaration.
