sctp: call rcu_read_lock before checking for duplicate transport nodes
Commit cd2b708 ("sctp: check duplicate node before inserting a new transport") called rhltable_lookup() to check for the duplicate transport node in transport rhashtable. But rhltable_lookup() doesn't call rcu_read_lock inside, it could cause a use-after-free issue if it tries to dereference the node that another cpu has freed it. Note that sock lock can not avoid this as it is per sock. This patch is to fix it by calling rcu_read_lock before checking for duplicate transport nodes.
