Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/8] mld: change context from atomic to sleepable

This patchset changes context of MLD module.
Before this patch, MLD functions are atomic context so it couldn't use
sleepable functions and flags.
This patchset also contains other refactoring patches, which is to use
list macro, etc.

1~3 and 5~7 are refactoring patches and 4 and 8 patches actually
change context, which is the actual goal of this patchset.
MLD module has used timer API. The timer expiration function is
processed as the atomic context so in order to change context,
it should be replaced.
So, The fourth patch is to switch from timer to delayed_work.
And the eighth patch is to use the mutex instead of spinlock and
rwlock because A critical section of spinlock and rwlock is atomic.

Taehee Yoo (8):
  mld: convert ifmcaddr6 to list macros
  mld: convert ip6_sf_list to list macros
  mld: use mca_{get | put} instead of refcount_{dec | inc}
  mld: convert from timer to delayed work
  mld: rename igmp6 to mld
  mld: convert ipv6_mc_socklist to list macros
  mld: convert ip6_sf_socklist to list macros
  mld: change context of mld module
