The upcoming patch will extract verification logic into a new module, MMSV (MAC Merge Software Verification). MMSV will handle most FPE fields, except frag_size. It introduces its own lock (mmsv->lock), replacing fpe_cfg->lock. Since frag_size handling remains in the driver, the existing rtnl_lock() is sufficient. Move frag_size handling out of spin_lock_irq_save() to keep the upcoming patch a pure refactoring without behavior changes.

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 reStructuredText 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.
