xfrm: add missing RCU read lock in xfrm_send_migrate_state()
xfrm_nlmsg_multicast() requires the RCU read lock to be held because it safely dereferences the net->xfrm.nlsk pointer using rcu_dereference(). When it is called from xfrm_send_migrate_state(), the RCU read lock is not held, which triggers a suspicious RCU usage warning: WARNING: suspicious RCU usage net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:1630 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage! Call Trace: lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0x13f/0x1d0 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:6876 xfrm_nlmsg_multicast+0x1d8/0x1f0 net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:1630 xfrm_send_migrate_state+0x870/0xae0 net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:3340 xfrm_do_migrate_state+0x1749/0x1e90 net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:3507 xfrm_user_rcv_msg+0x7a8/0xf30 net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c:3907 Fix this by wrapping the xfrm_nlmsg_multicast() call in xfrm_send_migrate_state() with rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock().
