Subject: [PATCH net] mctp: perform route destruction under RCU read lock

The kernel test robot reports:

  [  843.509974][  T345] =============================
  [  843.524220][  T345] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  [  843.538791][  T345] 5.14.0-rc2-00606-g889b7da23abf #1 Not tainted
  [  843.553617][  T345] -----------------------------
  [  843.567412][  T345] net/mctp/route.c:310 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

- we're missing the rcu read lock acquire around the destruction path.

This change adds the acquire/release - the path is already atomic, and
we're using the _rcu list iterators.
