We can't scan the proto_list to initialize sock cgroups, as it holds a rwlock, and we also want to keep the code generic enough to avoid calling the initialization functions of protocols directly, Convert proto_list_lock into a mutex, so we can sleep and do the necessary allocations. This lock is seldom taken, so there shouldn't be any performance penalties associated with that Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <redacted>
Applied.
