SUNRPC: Use RCU to dereference the rpc_clnt.cl_xprt field
A migration event will replace the rpc_xprt used by an rpc_clnt. To ensure this can be done safely, all references to cl_xprt must now use a form of rcu_dereference(). Special care is taken with rpc_peeraddr2str(), which returns a pointer to memory whose lifetime is the same as the rpc_xprt.
