cnic: Replace rcu_dereference() with rcu_access_pointer()

The "rcu_dereference()" calls are used directly in conditions. Since their return values are never dereferenced it is recommended to use "rcu_access_pointer()" instead of "rcu_dereference()". Therefore, this patch makes the replacements.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used:
