There is a memory leak happening in lpm_trie map_free callback function trie_free. The trie structure itself does not get freed. Also, trie_free function did not do synchronize_rcu before freeing various data structures. This is incorrect as some rcu_read_lock region(s) for lookup, update, delete or get_next_key may not complete yet. The fix is to add synchronize_rcu in the beginning of trie_free. The useless spin_lock is removed from this function as well.

This does not look good. LOCKDEP surely should complain to node = rcu_dereference_protected(*slot, lockdep_is_held(&trie->lock)); Since we no longer hold trie->lock
