Subject: [PATCH bpf] rethook: Fix to use WRITE_ONCE() for rethook::handler

From: Masami Hiramatsu <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2022 10:11:17 +0900

Since the function pointered by rethook::handler never be removed when
the rethook is alive, it doesn't need to use rcu_assign_pointer() to
update it. Just use WRITE_ONCE().
