John Fastabend bbbe211c29 net: rcu lock and preempt disable missing around generic xdp
do_xdp_generic must be called inside rcu critical section with preempt
disabled to ensure BPF programs are valid and per-cpu variables used
for redirect operations are consistent. This patch ensures this is true
and fixes the splat below.

The netif_receive_skb_internal() code path is now broken into two rcu
critical sections. I decided it was better to limit the preempt_enable/disable
block to just the xdp static key portion and the fallout is more
rcu_read_lock/unlock calls. Seems like the best option to me.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
