The opaque type rhash_lock_head should not be marked with __rcu because it can never be dereferenced. We should apply the RCU marking when we turn it into a pointer which can be dereferenced. This patch does exactly that. This fixes a number of sparse warnings as well as getting rid of some unnecessary RCU checking.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
