rtnl af_ops currently rely on rtnl mutex: unregister (called from module exit functions) takes the rtnl mutex and all users that do af_ops lookup also take the rtnl mutex. IOW, parallel rmmod will block until doit() callback is done. As none of the af_ops implementation sleep we can use rcu instead. doit functions that need the af_ops can now use rcu instead of the rtnl mutex provided the mutex isn't needed for other reasons.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
