Pablo Neira Ayuso b355870373 netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: use read spinlock to avoid datapath contention
commit 96b33300fba880ec0eafcf3d82486f3463b4b6da upstream.

rbtree GC does not modify the datastructure, instead it collects expired
elements and it enqueues a GC transaction. Use a read spinlock instead
to avoid data contention while GC worker is running.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
