Paul E. McKenney 99cf092058 doc: SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU uses cannot rely on spinlocks ... Because the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU code does not zero pages that are to be broken up into slabs, the memory returned by kmem_cache_alloc() must be fully initialized, including any spinlocks included in the newly allocated structure. This means that readers attempting to look up an SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU object must use a reference-counting approach. A spinlock may be acquired only after a reference is obtained, which prevents that object from being passed to kmem_struct_free(), but only while that reference continues to be held.
