net: sched: lock action when translating it to flow_action infra
In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock, take action's tcfa_lock when constructing its representation as flow_action_entry structure. Refactor tcf_sample_get_group() to assume that caller holds tcf_lock and don't take it manually. This callback is only called from flow_action infra representation translator which now calls it with tcf_lock held, so this refactoring is necessary to prevent deadlock. Allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC flag for ip_tunnel_info copy because tcf_tunnel_info_copy() is only called from flow_action representation infra code with tcf_lock spinlock taken.
