Subject: [PATCH] vxlan: using hash_lock to protect one budegt in vxlan_flush

The hash_lock will hold long time in vxlan_flush when stopping the
vxlan device in which there has lots of vxlan fdb entries;it would
affect the bh process in local cpu; and other cpu would wait for
a long time in vxlan_snoop until the hash_lock is released;so
using hash_lock to protect one budegt in vxlan_flush could
reduce the continuous holding time of the lock.
