Subject: [V2 PATCH 1/3] module: use rcu to protect module list read

V2:
As Eric pointed out,
* should use rcu_read_lock_sched() instead of rcu_read_lock()
* set_all_modules_text_{rw,ro}() mean to block module insertion/delete,
  so should continue use module_mutex, also  its list_for_each_entry_rcu()
  can be replaced with list_for_each_entry().

Now the read of module list is protected by preempt disable + *_rcu
list operations, this patch replaces the raw preempt_disable()
with rcu_read_lock_sched() wrapper, to use rcu to protect it directly,
the write is still protected by module_mutex.

I tested it with the following test case:

	#!/bin/bash
	i=0
	while [ $i -lt $1 ];
	do
		modprobe dummy && echo success
		modprobe bonding miimon=1000 && echo success
		let i=i+1
	done &

	i=0
	while [ $i -lt $1 ];
	do
		rmmod dummy && echo success
		rmmod bonding && echo success
		let i=i+1
	done
	echo done
	exit 0

for thousands of times, no problems.
