[PATCH v2] bonding: Replace rcu_dereference() with rcu_access_pointer()

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

This "rcu_dereference()" call is used directly in a condition.
Since its return value is never dereferenced it is recommended to use
"rcu_access_pointer()" instead of "rcu_dereference()".
Therefore, this patch makes this replacement.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used for solving it:

 if(

|
 while(
 (<+...
- rcu_dereference
+ rcu_access_pointer
  (...)
  ...+>)) {...}
)
