Its not needed anymore: A. If entry is totally new, then the rcu-protected resource must already have been removed from global visibility before call to nf_ct_iterate_destroy. B. If entry was allocated before, but is not yet in the hash table (uncofirmed case), genid gets incremented and synchronize_rcu() call makes sure access has completed. C. Next attempt to peek at extension area will fail for unconfirmed conntracks, because ext->genid != genid. D. Conntracks in the hash are iterated as before.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
