Commit 9a3efb6 ("bpf: fix memory leak in lpm_trie map_free callback function")
fixed a memory leak and removed unnecessary locks in map_free callback function.
Unfortrunately, it introduced a lockdep warning. When lockdep checking is turned on,
running tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_lpm_map will have:

  [   98.294321] =============================
  [   98.294807] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage

  [   98.299536] 2 locks held by kworker/2:1/54:
  [   98.300152]  #0:  ((wq_completion)"events"){+.+.}, at: [<00000000196bc1f0>] process_one_work+0x157/0x5c0

Since actual trie tree removal happens only after no other
accesses to the tree are possible, replacing
  rcu_dereference_protected(*slot, lockdep_is_held(&trie->lock))
with
  rcu_dereference_protected(*slot, 1)
fixed the issue.
