Subject[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 125/129] netfilter: nft_rbtree: fix locking
Date
3.16.7-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

commit 16c45eda96038aae848b6cfd42e2bf4b5e80f365 upstream.

Fix a race condition and unnecessary locking:

* the root rb_node must only be accessed under the lock in nft_rbtree_lookup()
* the lock is not needed in lookup functions in netlink context
