Subject: [PATCH] net: ipmr: fix suspicious RCU warning

When booting an arm64 allmodconfig kernel on linux-next (tag
next-20191115). The following "suspicious RCU usage" warning shows up.
This bug seems to have been introduced by commit f0ad0860d01e ("ipv4:
ipmr: support multiple tables") in 2010, but the warning was added only
in this past year by commit 28875945ba98 ("rcu: Add support for
consolidated-RCU reader checking").

This commit therefore introduces a lockdep-specific variable that
maintains initialization state.  It then passes this variable along with
the return value of lockdep_rtnl_is_held() to list_for_each_entry_rcu()
in order to correctly check for proper RCU/locking/initialization state.
