As pointed out by Jiri, there is still a race condition between
tcf_block_put() and tcf_chain_destroy() in a RCU callback. There
is no way to make it correct without proper locking or synchronization,
because both operate on a shared list.
Locking is hard, because the only lock we can pick here is a spinlock,
however, in tc_dump_tfilter() we iterate this list with a sleeping
function called (tcf_chain_dump()), which makes using a lock to protect
chain_list almost impossible.
Jiri suggested the idea of holding a refcnt before flushing, this works
because it guarantees us there would be no parallel tcf_chain_destroy()
during the loop, therefore the race condition is gone. But we have to
be very careful with proper synchronization with RCU callbacks.
