vxlan: Store struct sock in struct vxlan_sock.
Commit 3cf7203ca620 ("net/tunnel: wait until all sk_user_data
reader finish before releasing the sock") added synchronize_rcu()
in udp_tunnel_sock_release().
This was intended to protect the fast path of a dying vxlan device
from dereferencing vxlan_sock->sock->sk after sock_orphan() has set
sock->sk to NULL.
However, vxlan does not need to access struct socket itself in the
fast path; it only reads struct sock, and struct socket is only
used for tunnel setup and teardown.
Let's store struct sock directly in struct vxlan_sock.
In the next patch, we will free vxlan_sock with kfree_rcu(), then
vxlan no longer needs synchronize_rcu() in udp_tunnel_sock_release().
