Unfortunately `hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu` dereferences `n`
first thing using `hlist_next_rcu`, before checking for NULL:

    #define hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(pos, member)			\
    	for (pos = hlist_entry_safe(rcu_dereference_raw(hlist_next_rcu( \
    			&(pos)->member)), typeof(*(pos)), member);	\
    	     pos;							\
    	     pos = hlist_entry_safe(rcu_dereference_raw(hlist_next_rcu(	\
    			&(pos)->member)), typeof(*(pos)), member))

If I'm using it, I have to add a null-check after calling `neigh_first_entry`.

Another alternative is to use `hlist_for_each_entry_from_rcu`,
but it'll require calling `next` one time before the loop.

Is this preferable?
