Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 1/7] net/sched: taprio: taprio_offload_config_changed() is protected by rtnl_mutex

The locking in taprio_offload_config_changed() is wrong (but also
inconsequentially so). The current_entry_lock does not serialize changes
to the admin and oper schedules, only to the current entry. In fact, the
rtnl_mutex does that, and that is taken at the time when taprio_change()
is called.

Replace the rcu_dereference_protected() method with the proper RCU
annotation, and drop the unnecessary spin lock.
