Hello David,

here you have one fix intended for net/linux-3.10.
This patch is fixing a global fault protection that can be triggered on module
removal due to the double invocation of call_rcu() in chain.

While fixing, the patch is also adding some kernel doc to the changed functions.
Consider queueing this patch to -stable.



Please pull or let me know if there is any problem!

Thank you,
	Antonio
