Sorry, I chose the wrong annotation to fix the previous report.
This patch should fix it completely.

---8<---
Subject: rhashtable: Fix RCU dereference annotation in rht_bucket_nested

The current annotation is wrong as it says that we're only called
under spinlock.  In fact it should be marked as under either
spinlock or RCU read lock.
