BRIDGE: Properly dereference the br_should_route_hook
[BRIDGE]: Properly dereference the br_should_route_hook [ Upstream commit: 82de382ce8e1c7645984616728dc7aaa057821e4 ] This hook is protected with the RCU, so simple if (br_should_route_hook) br_should_route_hook(...) is not enough on some architectures. Use the rcu_dereference/rcu_assign_pointer in this case. Fixed Stephen's comment concerning using the typeof().
