Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] net: remove some rcu_bh cruft

There is no point using rcu_bh variant hoping to free objects faster,
especially hen using call_rcu() or kfree_rcu().

Disabling/enabling BH has a non-zero cost, and adds distracting
hot spots in kernel profilesm eg in ip6_xmit().

Eric Dumazet (3):
  ipv6: flowlabel: do not disable BH where not needed
  neighbour: switch to standard rcu, instead of rcu_bh
  net: remove rcu_dereference_bh_rtnl()
