Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 215/330] netfilter: nf_tables: silence a RCU-list warning in nft_table_lookup()
Date
From: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw>

[ Upstream commit 0a6a9515fe390976cd762c52d8d4f446d7a14285 ]

It is safe to traverse &net->nft.tables with &net->nft.commit_mutex
held using list_for_each_entry_rcu(). Silence the PROVE_RCU_LIST false
positive,

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:523 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
1 lock held by iptables/1384:
#0: ffffffff9745c4a8 (&net->nft.commit_mutex){+.+.}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid+0x25/0x60 [nf_tables]
