3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 7dc68e98757a8eccf8ca7a53a29b896f1eef1f76 upstream.
rateest_hash is supposed to be protected by xt_rateest_mutex,
and, as suggested by Eric, lookup and insert should be atomic,
so we should acquire the xt_rateest_mutex once for both.
So introduce a non-locking helper for internal use and keep the
locking one for external.
