Subject: [bisected] boot speed regression in current git

hi,

in current git my booting takes > 20 s longer. 

I bisected this to "net: restore the original spinlock to protect unicast list" commit: a6ac65db2329e7685299666f5f7b6093c7b0f3a0
reverting this commit gives me back 20 s in boot time. 

I've attached the two dmesg logs. 

I can help with testing if necessary. 

Regards,

Henk
