====================
mlxsw: spectrum_acl: Don't take rtnl mutex for region rehash
Jiri says:
During region rehash, a new region is created with a more optimized set
of masks (ERPs). When transitioning to the new region, all the rules
from the old region are copied one-by-one to the new region. This
transition can be time consuming and currently done under RTNL lock.
In order to remove RTNL lock dependency during region rehash, introduce
multiple smaller locks guarding dedicated structures or parts of them.
That is the vast majority of this patchset. Only patch #1 is simple
cleanup and patches 12-15 are improving or introducing new selftests.
