vxlan: Add RCU read-side critical sections in the Tx path

The Tx path does not run from an RCU read-side critical section which
makes the current lockless accesses to FDB entries invalid. As far as I
am aware, this has not been a problem in practice, but traces will be
generated once we transition the FDB lookup to rhashtable_lookup().

Add rcu_read_{lock,unlock}() around the handling of FDB entries in the
Tx path. Remove the RCU read-side critical section from vxlan_xmit_nh()
as now the function is always called from an RCU read-side critical
section.
