When we roll back the changes made by struct pernet_operations.init(), we execute mostly identical sequences in three places. * setup_net() * cleanup_net() * free_exit_list() The only difference between the first two is which list and RCU helpers to use. In setup_net(), an ops could fail on the way, so we need to perform a reverse walk from its previous ops in pernet_list. OTOH, in cleanup_net(), we iterate the full list from tail to head. The former passes the failed ops to list_for_each_entry_continue_reverse(). It's tricky, but we can reuse it for the latter if we pass list_entry() of the head node. Also, synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() can be easily switched by an argument. Let's factorise the rollback part in setup_net() and cleanup_net(). In the next patch, ops_undo_list() will be reused for free_exit_list(), and then two arguments (ops_list and hold_rtnl) will differ.

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.
