There is a place,

inet_dump_fib()
 fib_table_dump
   fn_trie_dump_leaf()
     hlist_for_each_entry_rcu()

without rcu_read_lock() triggers a warning,

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
-----------------------------
net/ipv4/fib_trie.c:2216 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
