Hi, Paul
I have a question to the srcu_read_lock(). Can it be invoked on
interrupt context? According to
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/kernel/rcu/srcu.c#L292 it can only be
called from process context, but according to
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/srcu.h#L213 seems it's ok
from irq context only if it matches with the srcu_read_unlock. Can you
please give some hints?

Thanks
