But I don't understand the scenario at all: CPU0: CPU1: hash_net4_kadt list_set_destroy so it's a hash:net type which works on a list of set type of sets only The list type of set can freely be destroyed (when not referenced), the destroy operation has no effect whatsoever on its possible hash:net type of member set. Moreover, kernel side add/del/test can only be performed when the set in question is referenced. Referenced sets cannot be deleted. So what is the scenario really in this case?
