  It is not necessary to get the inet(6)_dev outside of the rcu protected
region by using reference counting. Instead, the in(6)_dev_get can be
replaced by the non-refcnt function and everything can be moved inside the
rcu protected region.

Fixes: 0a7733468f95 ("batman-adv: mcast: detect, distribute and maintain multicast router presence")

v2:

* leave read_lock_bh for in6_dev->mc_list
