Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: more factorization in cleanup_net() paths This series is inspired by recent syzbot reports hinting to RTNL and workqueue abuses. rtnl_lock() is unfair to (single threaded) cleanup_net(), because many threads can cause contention on it. This series adds a new (struct pernet_operations) method, so that cleanup_net() can hold RTNL longer once it finally acquires it. It also factorizes unregister_netdevice_many(), to further reduce stalls in cleanup_net().

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.
