Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 01:38:44 +0200 From: pablo@...filter.org To: netfilter-devel@...r.kernel.org Cc: davem@...emloft.net, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 08/10] netfilter: nf_conntrack: remove unnecessary RTNL locking From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net> Locking the rtnl was added to nf_conntrack_l{3,4}_proto_unregister() for walking the network namespace list. This is not done anymore since we have proper namespace support in the protocols now, so we don't need to take the RTNL anymore.
