Hi Petr,
unloaded_tainted_modules looks to be a proper RCU list which makes me think
this reader could use just rcu_read_lock() instead of
mutex_lock(&module_mutex)?
If I understand correctly, yes: the use of rcu_read_lock() and
rcu_read_unlock(), respectively, will be sufficient.

I will send a follow up patch.


Kind regards,
