net: sched: don't release block->lock when dumping chains
Function tc_dump_chain() obtains and releases block->lock on each iteration of its inner loop that dumps all chains on block. Outputting chain template info is fast operation so locking/unlocking mutex multiple times is an overhead when lock is highly contested. Modify tc_dump_chain() to only obtain block->lock once and dump all chains without releasing it.

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.
