If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Manfred Spraul commit 3ef0c7a730de0bae03d86c19570af764fa3c4445 upstream. As we want to remove spin_unlock_wait() and replace it with explicit spin_lock()/spin_unlock() calls, we can use this to simplify the locking. In addition: - Reading nf_conntrack_locks_all needs ACQUIRE memory ordering. - The new code avoids the backwards loop. Only slightly tested, I did not manage to trigger calls to nf_conntrack_all_lock(). V2: With improved comments, to clearly show how the barriers pair.
