netfilter: ipt_MASQUERADE: remove redundant rwlock

The lock "protects" an assignment and a comparision of an integer.
When the caller of device_cmp() evaluates the result, nat->masq_index
may already have been changed (regardless if the lock is there or not).

So, the lock either has to be held during nf_ct_iterate_cleanup(),
or can be removed.

This does the latter.
