Can we at least agree you have no justification for this change in
this changelog?
He stated that he wishes to make this subsystem more lockless, and he
cannot do that without making the action cookie handling use RCU.

I agree with the stated goal, and the necessity of this kind of change.

Therefore I applied the patch.

I really don't see what the problem is.

I also gave a couple days for this patch set to get reviewed.  If you
have a problem, please respond to the patch posting.  When I see nobody
is reviewing, that is when I step in and make my own judgment.

So when you want your objection to be heard, please do so in a timely
manner.  That helps all of us.

Thank you.
