We should use proper RCU list APIs to manipulate help->expectations,
as we can dump the conntrack's expectations via nfnetlink, i.e. in
ctnetlink_exp_ct_dump_table(), where only rcu_read_lock is acquired.

So for list traversal, use hlist_for_each_entry_rcu; for list add/del,
use hlist_add_head_rcu and hlist_del_rcu.

Good catch. Applied, thanks.
