[PATCH] net: core: neighbour: Replace rcu_assign_pointer() with RCU_INIT_POINTER()

[Andreea-Cristina Bernat <bernat.ada@gmail.com>]

According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment 3.a, it can be used if
"3.   The referenced data structure has already been exposed to readers either
at compile time or via rcu_assign_pointer() -and-
 a.   You have not made -any- reader-visible changes to this structure since
then".

These cases fulfill the conditions above because between the
rcu_dereference_protected() calls and the rcu_assign_pointer() calls there is
no update of those values.
Therefore, this patch makes the replacements.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used:

- rcu_assign_pointer
+ RCU_INIT_POINTER
  (...,
(
 rtnl_dereference(...)
|
 rcu_dereference_protected(...)
) )
