Hey task_cls_classid() has its own rcu protection since commit 3fb5a991916091a908d (cls_cgroup: Fix rcu lockdep warning) So we can safely revert Paul commit (1144182a8757f2a1) (We no longer need rcu_read_lock/unlock here) (BTW net-next is not opened yet, its content outdated, although I like your patch series !) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cgroups" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
