mac80211: fix and simplify mesh locking
The locking in mesh_{mpath,mpp}_table_grow not only has an rcu_read_unlock() missing, it's also racy (though really only technically since it's invoked from a single function only) since it obtains the new size of the table without any locking, so two invocations of the function could attempt the same resize. Additionally, it uses synchronize_rcu() which is rather expensive and can be avoided trivially here. Modify the functions to only use the table lock and use call_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu().
