The rcu_read_lock() is not supposed to lock the kernel_sendmsg() API
since it has the lock_sock() in qrtr_sendmsg() which will sleep. Hence,
fix it by excluding the locking for kernel_sendmsg().
While at it, let's also use radix_tree_deref_retry() to confirm the
validity of the pointer returned by radix_tree_deref_slot() and use
radix_tree_iter_resume() to resume iterating the tree properly before
releasing the lock as suggested by Doug.
Fixes: a7809ff90c ("net: qrtr: ns: Protect radix_tree_deref_slot() using rcu read locks")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
