Subject: vxlan: lock RCU on TX path

From: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com>


[ Upstream commit 56de859e9967c070464a9a9f4f18d73f9447298e ]

There is no guarantees that callers of the TX path will hold
the RCU lock.  Grab it explicitly.

Fixes: c6fcc4fc5f8b ("vxlan: avoid using stale vxlan socket.")
