[PATCH net] net: airoha: add RCU lock around dev_fill_forward_path

> Since 0417adf367a0 ("ppp: fix race conditions in ppp_fill_forward_path")
> dev_fill_forward_path() should be called with RCU read lock held. This
> fix was applied to net, while the Airoha flowtable commit was applied to
> net-next, so it hadn't been an issue until net was merged into net-next.
> 
> Fixes: a9af709fda7e ("Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net")
> Signed-off-by: Qingfang Deng <dqfext at gmail.com>
