[PATCH] netfilter: ipset: Pass lockdep expression to RCU lists

From: Amol Grover <hidden>
Date: 2020-02-16 17:28:22
Also in: linux-kernel-mentees, lkml, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

ip_set_type_list is traversed using list_for_each_entry_rcu
outside an RCU read-side critical section but under the protection
of ip_set_type_mutex.

Hence, add corresponding lockdep expression to silence false-positive
warnings, and harden RCU lists.
