Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2009 02:29:06 +0000 (+0000) Subject: netns: Add an explicit rcu_barrier to unregister_pernet_{device|subsys} X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a765edadb28;p=linux.git netns: Add an explicit rcu_barrier to unregister_pernet_{device|subsys} This allows namespace exit methods to batch work that comes requires an rcu barrier using call_rcu without having to treat the unregister_pernet_operations cases specially.
