[PATCH 04/10] sunrpc: Use rcu_barrier() on unload.

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hidden>
Date: 2009-06-23 15:05:08
Also in: linux-ext4, linux-nfs, linux-wireless, lkml, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: kernel nfsd, sunrpc, and lockd servers, networking [general], nfs, sunrpc, and lockd clients, the rest · Maintainers: Chuck Lever, Jeff Layton, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Trond Myklebust, Anna Schumaker, Linus Torvalds

The sunrpc module uses rcu_call() thus it should use rcu_barrier() on
module unload.

Have not verified that the possibility for new call_rcu() callbacks
has been disabled.  As a hint for checking, the functions calling
call_rcu() (unx_destroy_cred and generic_destroy_cred) are
registered as crdestroy function pointer in struct rpc_credops.
