Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Revert "netfilter: x_tables: Switch synchronization to RCU"
This reverts commit cc00bcaa589914096edef7fb87ca5cee4a166b5c.
This (and the preceding) patch basically re-implemented the RCU
mechanisms of patch 784544739a25. That patch was replaced because of the
performance problems that it created when replacing tables. Now, we have
the same issue: the call to synchronize_rcu() makes replacing tables
slower by as much as an order of magnitude.
See https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/151796/ for why using RCU is
not a good idea.
Revert these patches and fix the issue in a different way.
