[BRIDGE]: Properly dereference the br_should_route_hook
This hook is protected with the RCU, so simple if (br_should_route_hook) br_should_route_hook(...) is not enough on some architectures. Use the rcu_dereference/rcu_assign_pointer in this case. Fixed Stephen's comment concerning using the typeof(). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
