> v1 -> v2:
> A minor change in the commit message of patch 2.
> 
> This patch series fixes a potential deadlock when creating a pcpu rt.
> It happens when dst_alloc() decided to run gc. Something like this:
> 
> read_lock(&table->tb6_lock);
> ip6_rt_pcpu_alloc()
> => dst_alloc()
> => ip6_dst_gc()
> => write_lock(&table->tb6_lock); /* oops */
> 
> Patch 1 and 2 are some prep works.
> Patch 3 is the fix.
> 
> Original report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102291
