I think you mean used __xfrm_policy_unlink() function to instead those 
codes.

1098 static struct xfrm_policy *__xfrm_policy_unlink(struct xfrm_policy 
*pol,
1099                                                 int dir)
1100 {
1101         if (hlist_unhashed(&pol->bydst))
1102                 return NULL;
1103
1104         hlist_del(&pol->bydst);
1105         hlist_del(&pol->byidx);
1106         list_del(&pol->walk.all);
1107         xfrm_policy_count[dir]--;
1108
1109         return pol;
1110 }

I will post the patch later.
