• e5177ec77   rcu: Not necessary to pass rcu_read_lock_held() to rcu_dereference_protected() ... Browse Code »

  Since ca5ecddf (rcu: define __rcu address space modifier for sparse)
  rcu_dereference_check() use rcu_read_lock_held() as a part of condition
  automatically. Therefore, callers of rcu_dereference_check() no longer
  need to pass rcu_read_lock_held() to rcu_dereference_check().
