As suggested by Herbert Xu, using workqueue is better than timer for net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c, so replace them with delayed_work. And due to this change, we have to disable BH when trying to lock. Note that, this patch is not fully tested, so should be in -mm first. Signed-off-by: WANG Cong <redacted>Please let me know when these two patches have gotten some good testing.
Thanks for your comments, David! I thought it can go into -mm so that many other people can help me to test it. Since I didn't have the IPSec environment. ;( I will try if I can set up one, then test it. Thanks.
