Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] can: convert protocol handling to RCU
This patch removes spin_locks at CAN socket creation time by using RCU.
Inspired by the discussion with Kurt van Dijck and Eric Dumazet the RCU code
was partly derived from af_phonet.c
Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@...tkopp.net>
