[PATCH net-next 07/14] netfilter: nfnetlink_log: no longer acquire sk_callback_lock

[Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>]

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

After commit 983512f3a87f ("net: Drop the lock in skb_may_tx_timestamp()")
from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior, apply the same logic in
__build_packet_message() to avoid touching sk->sk_callback_lock.
