packet: avoid out of bounds read in round robin fanout
PACKET_FANOUT_LB computes f->rr_cur such that it is modulo f->num_members. It returns the old value unconditionally, but f->num_members may have changed since the last store. Ensure that the return value is always < num. When modifying the logic, simplify it further by replacing the loop with an unconditional atomic increment. Fixes: dc99f600698d ("packet: Add fanout support.")
