====================
mpls: Remove RTNL dependency.
MPLS uses RTNL
1) to guarantee the lifetime of struct mpls_nh.nh_dev
2) to protect net->mpls.platform_label
, but neither actually requires RTNL.
If struct mpls_nh holds a refcnt for nh_dev, we do not need RTNL,
and it can be replaced with a dedicated mutex.
The series removes RTNL from net/mpls/.
Overview:
Patch 1 is misc cleanup.
Patch 2 - 9 are prep to drop RTNL for RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}ROUTE
handlers.
Patch 10 & 11 converts mpls_dump_routes() and RTM_GETNETCONF to RCU.
Patch 12 replaces RTNL with a new per-netns mutex.
Patch 13 drops RTNL from RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}ROUTE.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
