[BRIDGE]: Fix fdb RCU race

br_fdb_get use atomic_inc to increase the refcount of an element found
on a RCU protected list, which can lead to the following race:

CPU0 CPU1

br_fdb_get:   rcu_read_lock
__br_fdb_get: find element
fdb_delete:   hlist_del_rcu
      br_fdb_put
br_fdb_put:   atomic_dec_and_test
      call_rcu(fdb_rcu_free) br_fdb_get:   atomic_inc
      rcu_read_unlock
fdb_rcu_free: kmem_cache_free

Use atomic_inc_not_zero instead.
