Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] bonding: consolidate the two rlb_next_rx_slave functions into one

__rlb_next_rx_slave() is a copy of rlb_next_rx_slave() with the
difference that it uses rcu primitives to walk the slave list. We don't
need the two functions and can make rlb_next_rx_slave() a wrapper for
callers which hold RTNL.
So add a comment and ASSERT_RTNL() to make sure what is intended.
