This fixes the following spare warning when using make C=1 CF=-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ net/ipv6/addrconf.o net/ipv6/addrconf.c:3495:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) net/ipv6/addrconf.c:3495:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) net/ipv6/addrconf.c:3495:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) net/ipv6/addrconf.c:3495:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) To silence above spare complaint, an RCU annotation should be added to "next" pointer of hlist_node structure through hlist_next_rcu() macro when iterating over a hlist with hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(). By the way, this commit also resolves the same error appearing in hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu().
