From 707693c8a498697aa8db240b93eb76ec62e30892 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2016 19:22:12 +0800 Subject: netlink: Call cb->done from a worker thread The cb->done interface expects to be called in process context. This was broken by the netlink RCU conversion. This patch fixes it by adding a worker struct to make the cb->done call where necessary. Fixes: 21e4902aea80 ("netlink: Lockless lookup with RCU grace...") Reported-by: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Acked-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S.
