Yep, you are right, what I proposed is too naive, of course.

Yep, I think each RCU region should ideally be tracked separately and
get a unique ID. Kind of like a ref. It is some lifetime/scope, not
necessarily an actual kernel object. And if/when we have it, we can
grab the ID of most nested RCU scope, associate it with RCU-protected
iter, and then make sure that this RCU scope is active at every
next/destroy invocation.
