With shrinked lists ...

Hi Wolfgang, all,

Dave suggests to have the 'expensive' locking all the time - even on
uniprocessors, where we did not had any problems so far.

What do you think about this change?

I would like to have a common opinion here, before discussing it on netdev-ML
again ...

Regards,
Oliver
