Subject: [PATCH net] af_packet: do not use READ_ONCE() in packet_bind()

A recent patch added READ_ONCE() in packet_bind() and packet_bind_spkt()

This is better handled by reading pkt_sk(sk)->num later
in packet_do_bind() while appropriate lock is held.

READ_ONCE() in writers are often an evidence of something being wrong.

Fixes: 822b5a1c17df ("af_packet: Fix data-races of pkt_sk(sk)->num.")
