[PATCH mptcp-net v3 0/3] mptcp: pm: use _rcu variant under rcu_read_lock
Posted by Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) 4 weeks, 1 day ago
When looking at something else, I noticed that the local endpoint
entries list was iterated under rcu_read_lock, but using
list_for_each_entry() instead of the _rcu variant. That's what patch 1
is fixing.

At the previous meeting, Mat and Christoph mentioned we could use the
RCU variant elsewhere. That's what is done in patch 2, for -next then.

Patch 3 is a simple change to remove duplicated code.

Note: I see that we are using spin_lock_bh(), but the RCU read "locks"
are always used without the _bh() variant. Is that OK here, or did we
miss something?

FWIW, LGTM, too.

I don't add my explicit formal ack just to avoid possibly weird-looking
tag areas after merge on netdev ;)
