Some workloads hit dev_base_lock rwlock pretty hard. We can use RCU lookups to avoid touching this rwlock (and avoid touching netdevice refcount) netdevices are already freed after a RCU grace period, so this patch adds no penalty at device dismantle time. However, it adds a synchronize_rcu() call in dev_change_name() Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
