All uses of list_for_each_rcu() can be profitably replaced by the
easier-to-use list_for_each_entry_rcu().  This patch makes this change
for networking, in preparation for removing the list_for_each_rcu()
API entirely.

Updated to remove the two now-unused variables as noted by Dave Miller,
and also to fix my bonehead error detected by Kamalesh Babulal and
Alexey Dobriyan.  It now passes LTP on POWER.  And also has valid SOB.
Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed...

Hi Paul,

Thanks, the patch fixes the oops.

I'm fine with these changes, and I acked them already.
They belong as a set with the other list_for_each_rcu killing
patches, so I'm fine with them going all together in Andrew's
tree.

Thanks!
