As I mentioned last time, raw_spin_lock_irq() will be equivalent to an
RCU protected section anyway, so you don't need to do both. Just add a
comment on why rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() isn't needed inside the
raw irq safe lock.
Yes, you are right. We don't need rcu_read_lock() here. I put it there
to follow the locking pattern in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked(). I will
remove it in the next version.
Cheers,
