sock_diag_rcv() is still serializing its operations using a mutex, for no good reason. This came with commit 0a9c73014415 ("[INET_DIAG]: Fix oops in netlink_rcv_skb"), but the root cause has been fixed with commit cd40b7d3983c ("[NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious") Remove this mutex to let multiple threads run concurrently.

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.
