Will,
Hi Steve,
The patch looks good to me. Do you want to take it through your tree?

It benefits mainline too as a rcu_read_lock() is more efficient than
rwlocks. Although I will say this is a slow path anyway.
I was thinking that Catalin would queue it for 4.6 in the arm64 tree,
since that's probably easiest in case any unlikely conflicts crop up.
