Subject: [PATCH 4.0 02/55] netfilter: nft_rbtree: fix locking
4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>
commit 16c45eda96038aae848b6cfd42e2bf4b5e80f365 upstream.
Fix a race condition and unnecessary locking:
* the root rb_node must only be accessed under the lock in nft_rbtree_lookup()
* the lock is not needed in lookup functions in netlink context
