From f2c71c49da8f8941e3e465605fc41939eee9210a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2024 13:43:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mptcp: remove unneeded lock when listing scheds mptcp_get_available_schedulers() needs to iterate over the schedulers' list only to read the names: it doesn't modify anything there. In this case, it is enough to hold the RCU read lock, no need to combine this with the associated spin lock as it was done since its introduction in commit 73c900aa3660 ("mptcp: add net.mptcp.available_schedulers").
