[PATCH 10/14] batman-adv: protect tt_local_entry from concurrent delete events

From: Antonio Quartulli <hidden>
Date: 2015-08-04 16:52:27
Subsystem: batman advanced, the rest · Maintainers: Marek Lindner, Simon Wunderlich, Antonio Quartulli, Sven Eckelmann, Linus Torvalds

From: Marek Lindner <redacted>

The tt_local_entry deletion performed in batadv_tt_local_remove() was neither
protecting against simultaneous deletes nor checking whether the element was
still part of the list before calling hlist_del_rcu().

Replacing the hlist_del_rcu() call with batadv_hash_remove() provides adequate
protection via hash spinlocks as well as an is-element-still-in-hash check to
avoid 'blind' hash removal.
