netfilter: nfnetlink: add RCU in nfnetlink_rcv_msg()
Goal of this patch is to permit nfnetlink providers not mandate nfnl_mutex being held while nfnetlink_rcv_msg() calls them. If struct nfnl_callback contains a non NULL call_rcu(), then nfnetlink_rcv_msg() will use it instead of call() field, holding rcu_read_lock instead of nfnl_mutex Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> CC: Eric Leblond <eric@regit.org> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
