netfilter: ipset: references are protected by rwlock instead of mutex

The timeout variant of the list:set type must reference the member sets.
However, its garbage collector runs at timer interrupt so the mutex
protection of the references is a no go. Therefore the reference protection
is converted to rwlock.
