The LRU list is protected by its own lock, since commit 3ef0eb0db4
(net: frag, move LRU list maintenance outside of rwlock), and
no-longer by a read_lock.

This makes it possible, to remove the inet_frag_queue, which is about
to be "evicted", from the LRU list head.  This avoids the problem, of
several CPUs grabbing the same frag queue.

Note, cannot remove the inet_frag_lru_del() call in fq_unlink()
called by inet_frag_kill(), because inet_frag_kill() is also used in
other situations.  Thus, we use list_del_init() to allow this
double list_del to work.
