Not sure why you used the rcu version here, but the non rcu version in
tc_dump_qdisc_root()

Good catch.

Actually even the current code is odd in this regard -- 
qdisc_match_from_root() uses RCU iterator,

Because it can be run from qdisc enqueue() dequeue(), not holding RTNL.

 while tc_dump_*() use the 
non-RCU one; addition and deletion is performed using RCU primitives.

It really is protected by RTNL (qdiscs can not change during the dump)

I haven't got my head around this yet; if it's correct at all, it'd at 
least deserve a comment somewhere.

I'll respin v2 of the patch (there is also a conflict on HASH_SIZE 
definition in ip6_tunnel.c, ip6_gre.c and sit.c due to hashtable.h include 
in netdevice.h that needs to be resolved as well) that'd make RCU usage 
consistent.

Any other objections/comments? I was namely curious about any opinions 
regarding the hashtable size.

Well, this is the tricky part, but rhashtable would mean way more
changes...
