Subject: [PATCH 2/2 net-next] rhashtable: Annotate RCU locking of walkers

Fixes the following sparse warnings:

lib/rhashtable.c:767:5: warning: context imbalance in 'rhashtable_walk_start' - wrong count at exit
lib/rhashtable.c:849:6: warning: context imbalance in 'rhashtable_walk_stop' - unexpected unlock

Fixes: f2dba9c6ff0d ("rhashtable: Introduce rhashtable_walk_*")
