Here I meant this call rcu:

static void tcf_ct_cleanup(struct tc_action *a)
{
>-------struct tcf_ct_params *params;
>-------struct tcf_ct *c = to_ct(a);

>-------params = rcu_dereference_protected(c->params, 1);

}

static void tcf_ct_params_free(struct rcu_head *head)
{
>-------struct tcf_ct_params *params = container_of(head,
>------->------->------->------->------->-------    struct tcf_ct_params, rcu);

>-------tcf_ct_flow_table_put(params);
