This change addresses the issue using the htnode refcnt to guarantee the correct free order. While at it also add a RCU annotation, to keep sparse happy. v1 -> v2: use rtnl_derefence() instead of RCU read locks v2 -> v3: - don't check refcnt in u32_destroy_hnode() - cleaned-up u32_destroy() implementation - cleaned-up code comment v3 -> v4: - dropped unneeded comment Reported-by: Li Shuang <shuali@xxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: c0d378ef1266 ("net_sched: use tcf_queue_work() in u32 filter") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
