The s390_domain->devices list is only added to when new devices are attached but is iterated through in read-only fashion for every mapping operation as well as for I/O TLB flushes and thus in performance critical code causing contention on the s390_domain->list_lock. Fortunately such a read-mostly linked list is a standard use case for RCU. This change closely follows the example fpr RCU protected list given in Documentation/RCU/listRCU.rst.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
