[PATCH net-next v2 5/5] bonding: remove bond read lock for bond_3ad_state_machine_handler()

From: Ding Tianhong <hidden>
Date: 2013-10-24 03:12:54
Subsystem: bonding driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Jay Vosburgh, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The bond slave list may change when the monitor is running, the slave list is no longer
protected by bond->lock, only protected by rtnl lock(), so we has 3 way to modify it:
1.add bond_master_upper_dev_link() and bond_upper_dev_unlink() in bond->lock, but it is unsafe
to call call_netdevice_notifiers() in write lock.
2.remove unused bond->lock for monitor function, only use the exist rtnl lock().
3.use rcu_read_lock() to protect it, of course, it will transform bond_for_each_slave to
bond_for_each_slave_rcu() and performance is better, but in slow path, it is ignored.
so I remove the bond->lock and move the rtnl lock to protect the whole monitor function.
