packet: convert socket list to RCU (v3)

Convert AF_PACKET to use RCU, eliminating one more reader/writer lock.

There is no need for a real sk_del_node_init_rcu(), because sk_del_node_init
is doing the equivalent thing to hlst_del_init_rcu already; but added
some comments to try and make that obvious.
