Commit 6c16fa957e84 is an incorrect backport as we map the keys in struct __ipv4_neigh_lookup(), but the correct place to add the code is struct __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref(), compared to upstream.
Fix it by moving the code, or fewer cases will be covered as __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref() will be called unconditionally from __ipv4_neigh_lookup(), and it can be called from other places such as ip_output.c.
