Subject: [PATCH net] inetpeer: fix RCU lookup() again

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

My prior fix was not complete, as we were dereferencing a pointer
three times per node, not twice as I initially thought.

Fixes: 4cc5b44b29a9 ("inetpeer: fix RCU lookup()")
Fixes: b145425f269a ("inetpeer: remove AVL implementation in favor of RB tree")
