bridge: add rcu_read_lock on transmit
[ Upstream commit eeaf61d8891f9c9ed12c1a667e72bf83f0857954 ] Long ago, when bridge was converted to RCU, rcu lock was equivalent to having preempt disabled. RCU has changed a lot since then and bridge code was still assuming the since transmit was called with bottom half disabled, it was RCU safe.
